Selecting the correct challenge target with realistic chance of a successful outcome is key
The National 3 Peak Challenges are more about endurance and commitment than pure fitness
Some experience of high level walking is desirable especially when it comes to dealing with poor weather
During 24hr challenge at least 1 mountain will be climbed in the dark on rough tracks with the aid of a head torch
Poor weather can significantly affect mountain times. Traffic hold ups cause problems with driving times
Teams with good basic fitness and no experience of hill walking regularly achieve their challenge goal
To avoid repetitive injury and excessive fatigue we strongly advise you take adequate preparation time
Remember your team will only move as fast as it’s slowest member
ATG has an inclusive policy when it comes to all its activities but we do need to be aware of any medical conditions likely to affect safety on your challenge see medical info on booking form
