Done it!

There is a huge sense of achievement around the team as we've finally achieved what we spent the last six months preparing for. Smiles all round and absolutely starving so we wolfed down our breakfast. All the injuries held up thanks to Nicki's good work. We waited a bit for Team Two but our minibus drivers were dead keen to get back to Scotland so we've been dropped off with the coach in Llanberis where hopefully we'll meet the others soon.

For the record, here are Team One's timings;
- Ben Nevis 4h18 (peak in 2h40)
- Scafell Pike 3h19 (peak in 1h45)
- Snowdon 3h29 (peak in 1h48)
- total including driving 23h08

The good news is that Team Two were all together, Nick included, on the way up Snowdon.

We'll be back in Farnham this afternoon, well ready for normal food, a shower and some sleep. And to think about the next challenge?

Hi Will,
My recorded times on Ben Nevis were 4hr23 and 2hr40 - you correctly deducted the 5min on the overall time, but not on the summit time (my kids reminded me of the correct times as I'd already texted them home).

That makes 2:35 to the summit!
