Record-breaking kayak around Britain
24 year-old Dougal Glaisher is 30 days into his attempt to break the record for the fastest kayak trip around the coast of mainland Britain. The record currently stands at 67 days, and is fraught with challenges: tidal flows, dangerous crossings through busy shipping lanes, and all whilst getting to grips with a recent diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes. Keep an eye on www.dougalsepicadventure.com/ as he edges closer to the 2,000 mile mark.

Summer adventures on and around Skye
Bristol-based adventure and food blogger, Janine Alexander recently travelled to Scotland to kayak around the islands of Raasay and Rona (a 90km paddle).

The BTU Jungle Ultra 2023
Fitness coach John Belton has finished the Beyond the Ultimate Jungle Ultra in second position. Facing ascents of over 5,000m, 100% humidity and temperatures of 30+ celcius in the Peruvian Amazon, it's no wonder that only 20% of runners have crossed the finish line in the event's history. John lived off Firepot's Barbecued Pulled Pork throughout this five-stage race, alongside friend Spencer Matthews, who clocked in third.

Restoring montane woodland to the Cairngorms
