Climb every mountain
If the news desks of the combined electrical media seemed a little quiet in May then here’s the reason why – we were busy scaling the three highest peaks in the UK, all in the name of charity.
On the weekend of 8-9 May I was joined by Joe Bush (Electrical Engineering), Jonathan Cole (Professional Electrician), Michael Crane (Electrical Contracting News), Ben Cronin, Steve Hardiman and Hazel Swain (Electrical Times) in the 24-hour Three Peaks Challenge which saw us walk to the top of Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon.
The ‘Off Peak Electricity’ team managed a very respectable time of 14 hours and 10 minutes and completed the overall challenge (including driving and pit stops for food and fuel) in a time of 27 hours and 50 minutes.
I could forgive you for thinking that this sounds above and beyond the call of duty because there aren’t many things that would stir us collectively from our desks to spend nearly 28 hours together walking up mountains and eating and sleeping in a minibus. In fact this was all in aid of our industry charity the EEIBA.
