A former Royal Marine who completed the longest climb of Mount Everest in history has credited his military training in helping him on his epic journey.
Mitch Hutchcraft swam, cycled, ran and trekked from England to Everest base camp before scaling the world’s tallest mountain.
The 31-year-old, who served with 45 Commando, undertook a 35km swim across the Channel, a 12,000km cycle through Europe and Asia to India, a 900km run through Nepal and a 360km trek to Everest Base Camp before reaching the world’s highest peak and climbing back down again.
