Dave was a member of Team Maybe in the 2011 TPYR. He has spent the last 6 years recovering and so he's now ready to try it again. This time, he is hoping that the sea will be flat and for snow free runs.

This is Kev’s first 3PYR. He loves running in the mountains including 4 years of the Saunders LMM, 1 year OMM and 1 Buttermere swim run. The rest of the crew hope that he will still love running in the mountains at the end of this year’s 3PYR.
