Knitting & Crochet Magazine 52 Preview - Rowan

Three Peaks Challenge
We wanted to take this chance to congratulate our very own Rowan team, who
recently completed the gruelling Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge!
Lisa Richardson and Vicky Sedgwick from our Rowan Design team, Nicola Turner from
our Marketing team, Lizzie Foster from our Sales department and Paul Calvert from
our Graphics team undertook the daunting challenge on June 10th, and completed
it in ten and a quarter hours! A marvellous achievement we think, made all the more
impressive by the difficult weather conditions.
For those who aren’t familiar with the event, the challenge is to scale the peaks of
Pen-y-ghent (691 metres), Whernside (728 metres) and Ingleborough (723 metres),
usually in this order, and in under twelve hours – a route which measures a massive
twenty-four and a half miles! Well done team, we say.
