      Thanks for commenting, training is a good idea, we've been regular hill walkers for a few years now, after getting back into it. It's never too late to enjoy it, we don't go fast, we're there to enjoy it. I wish you success & hope you have better weather than we had

    Well done. I attempted this in 2016 with work, but had to pull out after Whernside when an old injury flared up. My friend and I went back to do the Three Peaks in 2019, successfully this time in 11.5 hours, it was hard and we were knackered. The scramble up Ingleborough was scary. I have done all three peaks separately to enjoy each individually.
