Three Prokick Kickboxers battle the elements for the homeless

Three top kickboxers for ProKick did their bit for the homeless in Northern Ireland at the weekend. Billy Murray Gary Hamilton and Gareth Colhounall completed the final stage for the 2005 ‘4 Peaks (Ireland) Challenge for Homelessness’. The challenge took participants to the four highest peaks in Ireland: Mweelrea in Connaught, Lunaquilla in Leinster, Carrauntoohil in Munster and finally Slieve Donard in Newcastle, Co, Down.
Featherweight Kickboxing Champion, Gary Hamilton said, "I thought I was fit but that was tuff, I take my hat off to all the walkers who do this every weekend".
All three joined the 30 man strong team to tackle the ‘4 Peaks’ - Good news is, they all helped raise over a whapping £10.000 pounds for much needed funds for this often stereotyped and forgotten problem.
