Welsh Freeze

Michelle Harvie's Welsh Freeze was successfully completed on Saturday August 5th 2006, to raise money for Arthritis Research.

It involved climbing the three highest peaks in Snowdonia: Carnedd Llewelyn(1064m), Glyder Fawr (999m) and, of course, Snowdon (1085m), plus swimming five major mountain lakes on route: Llyn Ogwen (1.6km at 300m), Ffynnon Lloer (600m at 650m), Llyn Idwal (1km at 400 m), Cwmffynnon (0.5km at 400m) and Glasylyn (0.5km at 600m).

All of this added up to about 30km of walking with 2400m of ascent/descent and a total of about 3.6km of cool swimming - all without a wet suit!

Please visit Michelle's JustGiving Web Page and make a donation.
