The Satmap 10 Peaks is a non-stop hike/ run over the 10 highest peaks in The Lake District which will take place on 21 July 2012. The course covers approximately 73 kilometres with over 5,600 metres of ascent. The dramatic landscape of The Lakes provides a memorable back drop for a day that you won’t forget.

The Satmap 10 Peaks is an official Macmillan event and open to anyone over 18 who is fit, healthy and mad enough to attempt it! The 2010 event saw 52 people, including armed forces, adventure racers, fell runners, triathletes, ultra distance and elite marathon runners take on the challenge. No one completed the course. The 2011 event was blessed with much better weather and nearly half of the starters completed all 10 peaks. Each participant is responsible for their own navigation (on foot) from peak to peak and must carry a map and compass or GPS, and know how to use them.

In memory of John Frederick Smith,
who loved the Lakes, loved to walk and loved a challenge.

You think it's going to be hard, but it's harder than you think Emotional Nothing is impossible, except maybe this! Too hard. Too far. But I’m definitely coming back next year! Many highs. A few lows. And every emotion in between. The toughest event I have ever had the pleasure of attempting.
