"We thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and had a great time. All of our team are well and in their own way pushed themselves to new limits. We were very pleased to have made it to the top of all three peaks and felt very happy coming off Snowdon even with the driving rain, snow, wind and head torch guiding us down."
"The Three Peaks Challenge was one of the greatest experiences I have ever had and is something that I will remember for the rest of my days. I have to congratulate the NDCS Challenges team for their excellent organisation of the event, as we all thought it ran like clockwork".
"At the moment every muscle hurts! But once the pain had gone away I think I would agree to do it again".
