Jay Whiting: Achieving the Remarkable

This week, Kenton sits down to talk to Jay Whiting at Everest Base Camp. Jay is not a professional climber or a professional athlete - he is a full-time solicitor in London - yet when this episode was recorded, he was preparing to take on an enormous Himalayan challenge. Jay talks to Kenton about his dreams of achieving the Everest Triple Crown this year - climbing Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse in one season. Only two people have ever done this to date - our host Kenton, and another professional mountaineer, Garrett Madison. Jay lives in Essex, which is not well-known for its mountainous terrain, and has spent hours and hours on a stair-master in training. Listen now to find out how Jay got on and if you find his story inspiring, please consider donating to his chosen charity, LandAid.  Donation link: www.gofund.m/2db7fee9 What Jay's Reading: Wisdom of Insecurity by Adam Watts What Jay's Listening To: David Goggins playlist, and Oasis
