Season 2, Ep 36 - Laurie Crayston On The Challenge Of Going Solo 28 Summers - Find Your Adventure

    • Health & Fitness

My guest today is Laurie Crayston.   Laurie is the founder of Ascendany Apparel - the clothing brand for adventurers; born in 2015 out of a love for the landscapes of the English Lake District.  Earlier this year he attempted the ultimate Cumbrian challenge; a continuous, single round of the Wainwrights.  That’s roughly 320 miles, 214 summits and over 35,000 metres of ascent.  Only four people had ever completed it in a continuous single round; and Laurie was attempting to do it completely on his own without any external support. This is a really fascinating insight into what it takes to tackle something like this on your own and the impact it has on your mind and body.
