3 Peaks Challenge Record Attempt - Supporting Dan Lawson

3 Peaks Challenge
At the The Nomadic sauna, we hatched out a plan,
Of a running adventure, with the Running Dan,
The 3 peaks challenge, a target was set,
And it turned in to something, I’ll never forget.
Monday (5am)
Dan starts in Carnaefon, with Damian Hall,
This Green runners cofounder, answered the call,
Good chats were had, and they really had fun,
In just over 3 hours, Mt Snowdon was done,
Then at Pen Y Pass, I met them both,
Navigation and support, that was my oath,
It was so hot and hilly, coming out of Wales,
The tracker was misplaced, our 2 early fails,
The rollercoaster hills, were surprisingly steep,
And you can’t run in Wales, without running with sheep,
As we pass Liverpool, we’re joined by Rob Pope,
Some good chats with Dan, which fills us with hope,
We travelled through Preston, Dan had a request,
He wanted a burger, so I did my best,
He carried on running, at McDonald’s I shopped,
Then when I caught up, by the roadside we stopped,
Along came a copper, and asked how’s your mate,
Dan was eating his burger, slightly prostrate,
Once we had told him, what we were doing,
He wished us both well, with some blue-ing and two-ing,
We get to Garstang, it’s been energy sapping,
I give Charlotte a call, and soon we are napping.
Our first day is done, with Dan’s super powers,
Running 206k, in just 23 hours.
Tuesday (6am)
A 2 hour rest, and we get on our way,
From Garstang to Scaffel, on this second day,
We travel through, many types of habitat,
Then a guy turns up, with a white Vaga hat,
It’s still hot and humid, but we then see some deer,
We give them a wahooo, and a boisterous cheer,
We’re passing through Kendal, we’re up in the lakes,
Alex Staniforth says Hi, and kindly partakes,
We then meet James, Duncan and Chris,
Along Windermere lake, Dan is running with bliss,
We’re then on our own, on this arduous trek,
The next meeting point, is at Langdale Beck,
We see James again, and we stick to the plan,
Up and Down the Pike, he’s supporting our Dan,
They’re back at half ten, and all is okay.
Today Dan completed, 118k.
Wednesday (4:45am)
The shortest of sleeps, are becoming a theme,
But who needs a sleep, when you live in a dream,
We’re joined by Caz, for more bike support,
We share conversations, and philosophical thought,
There’s a message from Ruby, that makes our Dan weep,
Dan is quite tired, but it helps him dig deep,
From Borrowdale to Milton, we’re well on our way,
But road closures at Beattock, cause a little delay,
So a cottage is booked, at an Airbnb,
And a quick bath for Dan, was so good to see.
A slightly short finish, but we go again tomorrow,
Another 120k, so there’s no time for sorrow.
