All the info is on the Bob Graham web site:

Extract from web page:

 

All our members have successfully completed The Bob Graham Round; the 72 mile, 27,000 foot circuit of 42 of the highest peaks in the English Lake District within 24 hours.

 

First done way back in 1932 by Bob Graham, hotelier of Keswick, Cumberland, at the age of 42, the 42 Peak Round has become a testing ground for the supremely fit. Each summer around 100 of the most highly tuned ultra-distance fell runners will attempt the 27,000 ft of ascent within the allotted 24 hours. Only one in three will return to the Keswick Moot Hall before the clock runs down. Most of the rest will be back again...!

Have you got what it takes...?

 

Richard did exceptionally well by finishing in under 20hrs
