A group of 9-12 year old girls and their football coaches are taking on their very own Lockdown version of the 3 peaks challenge. 

For this challenge they have spilt into equal teams with coaches as captains. Each team will walk the equivalent steps of climbing and descending the 3 biggest mountains in the world.

Mount Everest - 58,070 steps

K2 - 57,770 steps

Kilamanjaro - 38,060

To climb and descend these mountains is a combined distance of 309,040 steps. (Google told me so)

The teams steps will be recorded daily by team captains and reported to "Base camp" where the totals will be added up. First team to complete the 309,040 steps wins.

We anticipate this will take the teams 5-7 days to complete. This will mean the girls need to complete an average of 9500 steps each per day with the coaches making up the rest but limited to no more than 5000 steps per day. On a standard day 9500 steps would be easy but remember we are all in lockdown so the majority of the steps will have to be completed in their own homes or back gardens using their own motivation (that's where the coaches come in to help motivate the girls)

This is quite a big challenge for a group of young girls but it will be an amazing achievement. As coaches we know they will all give it everything they have got. Amongst the girls parents we have our own NHS heroes and lots of keyworkers doing an amazing job at such an unprecedented time so the girls want to do their bit and show how much they love and support them.

Being able to raise as much money as possible for our chosen Charity, The Association of NHS Charities will be the biggest achievement of it all.
