Greg James completes delayed Sport Relief challenge
The Radio 1 DJ had been forced to postpone his 'Gregathlon' two weeks ago owing to poor weather
Greg James has finally completed the Sport Relief challenge that he was forced to postpone due to inclement weather.
The Radio 1 DJ set out to climb the UK’s three highest mountains and cycle the journeys between them.
Dubbed his 'Gregathlon', the feat had to be put on hold two weeks ago owing to the 'Beast from the East' taking hold and bringing snow and freezing temperatures to the UK.

Now, two weeks later, Greg has finished his challenge - raising over £1 million in the process.
He tweeted his delight, saying he was going to do something "new" with Sport Relief soon (not involving mountains) and that he needed a whisky.
