The Welsh 3000s challenge in under 10 hours? A north to south attempt

This is mine and three others attempt at completing the Welsh 3000s from north to south in under 10 hours.
We decided to tackle it in this direction as I thought it would be easier, and boy I was wrong.
The Welsh 3000s are the 15 mountains in Wales that sit above 3000ft in height.
All 15 peaks are situated in Snowdonia and are spread across three mountain ranges: Snowdon, the Glyderau and The Carneddau.
The challenge is to summit all 15 peaks within 24 hours. The time limit starts at the first peak and stops as soon as you reach the last.
It’s an extremely difficult challenge which requires
• a high level of mountain fitness
• Experience tackling grade one scrambles
• A good level of navigational skills.
• A shed load of mental resilience
• The ability to consume a copious amount of Calories
The official challenge is around 37-42km in length and involves over 3000m of Elevation gain.
However, when you factor in the hike in and out, you will end up covering over 50km and nearly 3,800m of elevation gain.

I've seen hundreds of videos of Snowdonia, I've even filmed hundreds of hours of me up there myself, but I have never seen anything quite like the quality of this video, especially that fly around above Crib Goch! What an amazing video.... the best I have ever seen of Snowdonia and the Welsh 3000s. What a glorious day you had and what incredible views.

Thank you, I'd argue the vlog of my first attempt is more cinematic!

Super well done and great images. Failed it twice and third time lucky in 18hrs so I know how hard it is

Chwarae teg. By the way. Bivi on Yr Wyddfa, dump bivi gear in the pass will save your legs to finish it sub 10. Sun’s a killer over these distances and got me heat stroke when I did it once.

Good job, I'm a local fell runner so it's a favourite route, but please be aware that you were using a drone in areas where their use is prohibited in the park, which is most of the Carneddau and Glyderau.

6 And there are several reasons why dreams are blurry or disappear when waking up. It is true that it comes from original sin, but it is above all due to our lack of disposition and consecration. And to this, you must add the divinations of our parents throughout the millennia up to us. And now there is the internet and the effect of the screens of telephones, computers and televisions. Then, there is the effect of the nudity of your spouse, and of the photos and videos on the internet, and badly dressed women in the streets.
