Saturday saw one of our ultra runners in action at the Three Peaks fell race. Peter who is quite an experienced runner over this distance now took on the Three Peaks Race which traverses the famous Yorkshire Dales mountains of Pen-y-ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside And is one of the oldest, most famous and best organised fell races in Britain.
First run in 1954, the Race covers 37.4 kilometres with 1608 metres of ascent and descent over the most rugged and spectacular countryside in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, taking competitors to a height of 723 metres above sea level.
Peter completed this course in an excellent 5:30:33. Top work!
