Running High

Running High

In 1990 HUGH Symonds completed an amazing run, the continuous traverse on foot, including the distances between them, of all the 3,000 foot peaks in Great Britain.
Having achieved this in the staggeringly short time of 83 days, when his target had been a hundred, he decided to add the Irish tops to the list and still finished in 97 days, raising a considerable sum of money for Intermediate Technology along the way. This is his account of the epic feat he achieved.
