Im doing it as part of the brutal on Sep 20th. At least I am "only" doing a single.

Well done that man.

But I'd be really impressed if you could do a 2.5 mile swim up Snowdon

So you were there yesterday?

What "silly" way of getting up the mountain can you think of, and will try?
Perhaps go up with a cabbage balanced on your head?

Walking is pretty silly. When there's a perfectly good train that is.

Sprouting a mountain record, by a nose

I'm not sure whether I can quite believe this story that I read on the BBC website earlier today:

BBC News - Warwickshire man nose-pushes Brussels sprout up Snowdon

A guy pushed a Brussels sprout up a mountain (Snowdon) using his nose.

WTF! I've never heard of anything quite as ridiculous as that in my life.

What's the furthest you've every pushed a sprout with your nose. Or indeed with your fork. Or knife?
