Started at Ben Nevis, on May 31st 2023, later than planned due to the queue to pay for parking because the automated parking meters were out of order. Despite an unexpected diversion through Glasgow due to a motorway traffic jam/closure we managed to complete Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike before sundown. The drive to Snowdon was extended because of M6 closure meaning we had to take a second detour this time into Merseyside. Arrived at base of Snowdon shortly before 3am. As we were well ahead of schedule, we decided to get some sleep before starting Snowdon. Started just before sunrise and completed the challenge by 7:45am on 1st June 2023.
