Life can bring you into contact with some amazing characters and Ken is no exception. We first met on a Wilderness Medical Training course about a year ago, where Ken was preparing for an adventure of mammoth proportions. His plan was to cycle around the world. Not just cycle a few routes through a few countries, but to literally cycle around the world - starting and finishing in the UK. Preparation is everything and Ken was meticulous, even down to obtaining the specialist medical training we provide at WMT. Ken set off in September 2010 and is currently a few miles short of Mongolia. His journey aims to raise awareness and funding for 'The Outward Bound Trust'.
There is far too much news and information about Ken's adventure to be told in a few short blog paragraphs and I suggest anyone wanting inspiration on a different scale should visit his website 'acrosscontinents.org', where you will find regular updates.
Well done Ken - keep going!
