I can’t think of anyone better to help bring Season 3 to a close than my guest today - Karen Darke @handbikedarke. Karen lives life as a modern-day ‘Alchemist’, passionate about turning challenge into opportunity and transforming the difficult stuff into ‘gold'. She loves to explore, have adventures, stay healthy, and to write about her experiences. As a young woman, Karen was a keen runner, climber and orienteer but fell of a cliff whilst climbing and became paralysed from the chest down - a...
My guest today is Laura Massey-Pugh, one half of husband and wife duo @stela_tandem - Laura and her husband Stevie are currently preparing to circumnavigate the world on a tandem bicycle in just 180 days later this year. That means averaging over 100 miles a day across 4 continents, 22 countries to complete the 18,000 miles from start to finish! They have set their sites on smashing the current world record of 263 days for a tandem ride and we talk about where the idea came from,...

My guest today is Keith Burnet (@keithaurnet). Keith is a father, husband, executive and former colleague from the fitness industry - a place where I spent more than two decades of my working life. Since beginning this wonderful 28 Summers journey I have discovered some incredibly rich stories of everyday folks doing amazing things all around the world. The deeper I get into this world the more I realise that incredible stories exist all around us, we just need to look for t...
My guest today is Saki Nakamura (@ultra_saki). Saki was born in Japan and raised in England from a young age having lived her for more than 25 years. After falling in love with ultra running, she realised she had lost touch with her Japanese heritage and wanted to reconnect with her family in Japan and rediscover Japan’s culture. She continues to be blindsided by Covid travel restrictions but is currently gearing up for her Pilgrimage Run - running between 88 temples whilst ...
My guest today is Nikki Love @nikkiloveruns - according to her website she is here to do her best, be her best, have a blast along the way and bring as many people as she can along for the ride. Put simply she is Chasing Extraordinary! Nikki’s message is simple - it’s never too late, you’re never too old and you are capable of much more than you ever thought possible. In this awesome chat, Nikki talks through her own journey of self-doubt and discovery and how she unlocked her superpowe...
My guest today is Alex Staniforth (@Alexstaniforth_) - Alex is an adventurer, speaker, author and charity ambassador. He has made two attempts to climb Mount Everest but this isn’t your typical story about climbing Everest. Suffering a mild form of epilepsy at nine years old shattered his confidence and self-esteem with panic attacks and anxiety a regular theme from his childhood. Relentless bullying throughout school and a lifelong stammer in his speech left him - in his ...

She has spent more than 20 years leading groups into the wilderness worldwide.

My guest today is @NickButterRun - Nick is an endurance athlete, adventurer and author. He is also the ONLY person to have run a marathon in EVERY country in the world. A truly remarkable achievement! But Nick didn't stop there; earlier this year he completed his epic ''Run Britain'' challenge which saw him break the record for circumnavigating Britain on foot - by covering 5,240 miles in just 128 days - that's more than 40 miles per day! We talk about everything from ...
Another of my campfire chats at the Armchair Adventure Festival (@ArmchairAdventureFest) last month in Cornwall. This chat was with the lovely, inspiring and awesome Nikki Love (@nikkiloveruns) and we chat about her turning 50 being the catalyst for big challenges, silencing your critics and writing an inspiring book for young people!
This week I have something a little different for you. We talk a lot on this podcast about making life changes, living adventurously and not cruising through life on autopilot. My guests this week are here to help you with the ''how''! They are sisters, Lauren and Candice Henry - success and influence strategists and co-founders of Aretios. They hold degrees in communications, business marketing and management, as well as master’s degrees in executive leadership from Liberty...
This is the LIVE recording of my chat around the campfire with the @BanwellScouts. When I signed up to do live podcasting around a campfire in a field in Cornwall with ZERO production or audio experience I knew I was taking a huge risk. I also knew that I might just capture genuine, honest and meaningful chats like this one with these wonderful young people. As a father of four I've learned first-hand that when we stop to listen to our children and trust them, amazing things...
My guest today is Emily Scott (@adventure_scottie). Emily is a professional ski instructor, adventure athlete, multiple ironman finisher, Team GB triathlete, mountain lover and Munro completionist with her recent and epic Project 282. She is also a qualified accountant and made the brave move to changer her trajectory when she decided she wanted to live a life she WASN’T trying to get away from. This was such a fun chat and I hope you love it as much as I did!
My latest check-in with 28 Summers Everyday Adventure Kelly Hutton (@kel_hutton_nz). Just ahead of this call I was devastated to learn that Kelly had received the news she was dreading...her cancer is back. When I started this mini-series I had no idea how much of an effect these amazing women would have on me - each of them pushing their boundaries and challenging their own (and others!) beliefs around their capabilities. Kelly is the epitome of that mindset: her energy, ...
Not one but TWO check-in's with the very the wonderful Bev Logan @logans_running as she prepares for her first ever marathon in London! We chat about her training, fuel strategy and general jitters as she prepares for this huge step in her adventurous journey. Bev is a busy mum, entrepreneur and used to hate running - Bev's message and her business (Badass Mother Runners) is all about getting out there and finding your tribe as you look to be more active and adventurous. As ...

In this episode we chat as he was gearing up for a solo and unsupported Kayak...
Not one but TWO check-in's with the very awesome Anna Hughes @singpaintrun - as you listen to this episode keep in mind that just a few months ago this mum of two hated running and was lacking confidence when it came to her capabilities. Fast forward to today and it's like I am talking to a different person; Anna is taking on progressively bigger challenges, pushing her boundaries and proving to others and herself that she is capable of so much. If you often find yourself saying ...
My guests today are Matthew and Charis Watkinson. Husband and wife, former vets who became increasingly frustrated with their lives, their industry and societies expectations of them. After deciding enough was enough they upped sticks and moved to Wales, buying a plot of land and committing to live truly off the grid. They have since had two children and continue to battle their neighbours who sadly reject their vision to live off the land. But…as you will hear in this...
My guest today is Laura Bingham. Laura is an adventurer and explorer, perhaps best known for her world’s first descent of the Essequibo River - locating the source of the river for the first time on record. Laura left home aged 18 and travelled through Europe, Africa, Asia and North America before landing in Mexico where she taught English and took part in conservation work to protect the endangered Jaguar. When she was ready to head back to the UK, without the necessary fun...
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...
