Teams of four or two are taking part in this extremely tough dawn to dusk event where they will cycle 35 miles to climb 1000m around the incredible winding lanes of the Brecons , navigate a 2-mile canoe course, and finally summit of Pen Y Fan, the highest mountain in the Brecon Beacons with an altitude of 886m, on an 8 mile round trip to raise money for this incredible cause.
With your help, we're determined to make a real difference to children's lives.
