60
teams, 26 marshals, 4 mountains, 4 countries, a TV crew
and a staggering amount of banter, support & sponsorship pledged for Wooden Spoon
projects throughout the UK and Ireland, all in 48 hours!
Each team must pledge a minimum of £4,400, with the grand total expected at £400,000 raised for this event alone! People from all walks of life, abilities and ages will take part, making this event unique as a challenge in the UK.
Each team must have all it's 3 climbers run/climb/walk each of the 4 mountains together, teams "missing" a climber will be penalized and those who choose to leave their comrades behind on the mountain in search of a quick personal time, will, not alone incur the wrath of his/her mates, but also face disqualification - this event truly is designed to raise smiles as much as it is designed to raise donations.
Last but not least, marshals will be on hand at various points across the mountains to ensure safety, but also to ensure no cheating or "cutting corners" takes place!
