The challenge will see teams from the IT industry tackling the three highest peaks in Scotland (Ben Nevis, 1334 m), England (Scafell Pike, 978 m) and Wales (Snowdon, 1085 m) all in the target time of 24 hours.
In 2009, QA completed the challenge in the fastest time of 23 hours and 18 minutes, and the gauntlet is down for any team who thinks they can beat them! Better still, last year’s event raised £50,000 to support CARE’s poverty-fighting work.
