20 Intelligent Servers employees are doing the Yorkshire Three Peaks for Yorkshire Air Ambulance

Intelligent Servers are taking part in the exciting and rewarding challenge of tackling the famous Yorkshire Three Peaks this September to raise money for Yorkshire Air Ambulance!

The challenge involves walking the route of the Yorkshire Three Peaks; Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough within a 12 hour period.   

With a total walking distance of 39.2km (24.5 miles), the walk includes varied terrain with various steep ascents and descents. We will have to climb the three peaks of Pen-Y-Ghent (694m), Whernside (736m), and Ingleborough (723m).

Who’s taking part?

So far, 20 members of staff from all departments, including Amber, Andrew, Andy, Ben, Blaine, Bryn, Danny, Ted, Hayley, Jake, Laura, Lee, Leigh, Liam, Louie, Matt, Mike, Sarah, Scott and Shelley are signed up to take part!

Intelligent Servers Get Practicing

To help us get into shape and prepare for the challenge, we are aiming to complete a few practices before the challenge in September and will tackle one Peak at a time.

As our first practice, we recently completed the Pen-Y-Ghent walk. As the lowest of the Yorkshire Three Peaks at 2,277 feet (694m), it was a good place to start. It was a steep climb, but full of beautiful scenery which we admired on the descent!
