CrossFit Harrogate prepares for charity challenge
Thirty members of Crossfit Harrogate will take on the national three peaks challenge this weekend to raise money for four charities.
The super-fit bunch will attempt to scale the three highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales — Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon — in 24 hours.
It involves walking 23 miles and climbing more than 3,000 metres, which is twice the ascent of the Yorkshire three peaks. Participants also have to drive 460 miles.
The challenge will raise money and awareness for Harrogate Homeless Project, Saint Michael’s Hospice, Williams Syndrome Association and Artizan International.
Beth Crewe, who is among those taking part, said:
More than £4,600 has already been pledged towards the £5,000 target. You can donate here.
