Laura & James from near Whitby will today complete a 3-day challenge to raise money for 'Cure Usher Sydrome' which their 2 year old daughter has been diagnosed with.
Usher Syndrome is the leading cause of genetically inherited combined hearing and sight loss worldwide.
On Tuesday this week, the couple completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge.
On Wednesday they cycled 70 miles from Ingleton in the Yorkshire Dales to Swainby near Stokesley.
And today, they are walking from Clay Bank, along the Coast To Coast path to Egton Bridge.

They are hoping to arrive into Egton Bridge later this afternoon:
