Charity man Fergus is in peak fitness
FERGUS Crawley hopes to set a new “vertical marathon” world record as he goes up and down Ben Nevis 32 times.
The marketing exec, 24, plans to ascend 138,451ft in elevation on foot, covering a distance of 336 miles in 11 days.
Hoping to finish at 11am on Remembrance Day, November 8, he is raising funds and awareness of men’s mental health for Movember.
Mr Crawley, from Edinburgh, has undertaken ultra- endurance challenges before but this is his biggest challenge yet.
He said that he hoped his effort was “encouraging everybody to climb their own mountain”.
