Mission: Possible by Ash Dykes
A decacde of living dangerously
In 2014, Ash became the first ever recorded person to walk across Mongolia solo and unsupported, covering a distance of over 1,500 miles in 78 days. He trekked over the Altai Mountains, through the Gobi Desert and the Mongolian Steppe, all whilst pulling a wheeled trailer weighing 120kg, carrying everything needed to survive.
Sir Ranulph Fiennes described it as being “an example of great determination, to achieve something that’s becoming harder all the time, an adventuring “first”, which would have proved both physically and mentally challenging”.
In 2016, Ash achieved his second world record by becoming the first person to walk the entire length of Madagascar’s interior, whilst summiting its eight highest Mountains. An expedition of over 1,600 miles, taking 155 days to complete and faced many challenges from being held up by the military, contracting the deadliest form of Malaria, crossing croc infested rivers amongst much more and one that Bear Grylls wished him luck on.
Although aged only 26, Ash is far from new to extreme endeavours and from the age of 19, he set off to explore what was out there.
