The conversation explores the highs, lows, challenges, and unforgettable moments they’ve experienced so far, along with the motivation behind taking on such an extraordinary adventure. They also discuss their fundraising efforts for the Devon Air Ambulance and why supporting the lifesaving work of the charity means so much to them.

Zoe is also the author of 630 Miles Braver: Midlifing on the South West Coast Path, sharing her experiences of resilience, adventure, and self-discovery through long-distance walking. Meanwhile, Mike is aiming to become the oldest person to walk the entire coast of Great Britain in one continuous journey.

This is a powerful episode about endurance, purpose, adventure, and proving that age should never stop you from chasing something extraordinary.
