Challenge Auros

For 2007, the Auros team decided to rise to the Three Peaks Challenge, raising money for CARE International (www.careinternational.org.uk). The three highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales were climbed in just over 28 hours, and a total of £6,988 raised.

The event started on the afternoon of Saturday the 9th of June at the foot of Ben Nevis in Scotland, moving overnight to Scafell Pike in the Lake District, and then finally on to Snowdon in North Wales.

The Auros team included 5 walkers and 4 support crew (drivers, medics, cooks, priests etc) to help them during the challenge.  Team Auros battled extreme heat and fatigue, but successfully completed the Challenge shortly after sunset on Sunday evening.

Our thanks to everybody who supported Team Auros with generous donations and particular thanks to Sytner Mercedes-Benz of Bristol, the official team sponsor, for the loan of two top-of-the-range Mercedes ML and GL class vehicles to help us with our challenge.
