Ed Birch Director of Salt-Street productions

Running and swimming a unique route from the summit of Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England, to the sea.

Anna Paxton

Wow, what a feat - climbing Scafell Pike, highest mountain in England, then swimming across freezing cold Wastwater and running to the sea. An incredible achievement, especially as Aleks is new to swimming and still panics.
