Joss Naylor Challenge

The challenge, for veteran fell runners and walkers, consists of traversing thirty peaks over a distance of forty-eight miles, between Pooley Bridge and Wasdale, within an age-related timescale. At 64 years of age my time allowance was 18 hours.

The challenge splits up into four sections: Pooley Bridge to Kirkstone Pass(12 peaks), Kirkstone Pass to Dunmail (4 peaks), Dunmail to Sty Head Pass (6 peaks) and Sty Head Pass to Wasdale (8 peaks). My image of the challenge reflects this structure, and the colours reflect the differing club colours of five symbolic challengers making their journey east to west.

I completed the challenge in 15 hours 26 minutes.
