In June 2022, I'll be heading out to the Amazon Jungle to complete a 5 day, 230km foot race. The race is self-sufficient with the exception of clean water at the nightly stops; clothing, food, day's water, sleeping bag and hammock must be carried. The Amazon Jungle provides one of the toughest environments to race in with exceptionally high levels of humidity as well as high temperatures and altitude to contend with.
In 2017 I completed the highest marathon in the world at Everest Base Camp for a Scottish based military charity and it's my hope to continue raising money and awareness for veterans' causes by racing in some of the most challenging places in the world.
In my journey to racing in the Jungle I visited the humid mountains of Vietnam in 2019 to experience racing in high humidity and temperature. The journey has also taken me to the science lab to experience altitude acclimatisation the scientific way!
