'Proof that epic adventures are open to everyone, even if you've
got a day job.' Alastair Humphreys Nicknamed 'Mountain Man' by the
Sunday Telegraph, James Forrest is the record-breaking adventurer
who climbed every mountain in England and Wales in just six months
- the fastest ever time. Solo and unsupported, he walked over 1,000
miles and ascended five times the height of Everest during his
446-peak challenge. And he did it all on his days off from work,
proving it is possible to integrate an epic adventure into your
everyday life. From collapsing tents and horrific storms to
near-fatal mountaineering mishaps, James endured his fair share of
hardship out in the hills. But the good times far outweighed the
bad. He slept wild under the stars, met eccentric locals, and
exchanged the 21st century social media bubble for a simpler, more
peaceful existence. What did he learn along the way? That life is
more fulfilling when you switch off your phone and climb a
mountain. Chosen by The Great Outdoors magazine as their book of
the year, all readers will be inspired and motivated by James's
amazing adventure, and the book concludes with a section on how YOU
can achieve your next adventure. Whether it's something to get the
kids involved in at half term, a fun challenge to tackle solo or
with friends, or a record-breaking attempt of epic proportions,
James will guide you through everything you need to do to plan and
execute your adventure. This paperback edition also features a
Foreword by adventurer and writer Anna McNuff.
