Neil Heritage: Double amputee summits Matterhorn - a world of 'no excuses'!

Neil is a former soldier who lost both legs above the knee following a suicide bomb attack whilst serving in Iraq. Since his injury in 2004 Neil has learned to walk and then run, he has competed in triathlons and cycling events. Neil has also learned to climb, ski and is a qualified scuba-diving instructor.
In 2012 Neil was part of the 6 man Row to Recovery crew to row 3,000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean raising over 1 million pounds for charity.
Neil set up and established the charity Climb to Recovery in 2016 which supports veterans in gaining outdoor instructor qualifications as a pathway back into employment. In 2020 Neil was joined by members of the charity where they climbed the Iconic Matterhorn mountain, this was Neil's 3rd attempt at the summit and its success makes him the first person to complete the climb with his disability.

On 7 January 2021, I'm attempting THREE World Records on a a static bike! Why? Because I feel it's important to create a place where doing above ordinary things so we all can elevate! Want to get involved or curious about collaborating with me? Click on this link to find out more: www.katestrong.co/world-record
And... I've also created a challenge that no female has attempted before.
In a 12-month period, I intend to:
🚴🏻‍♀️ Cycle 3.100miles across America in the iconic Race Across America
🏊‍♀️ Swim 21miles across the English Channel
🏔 Summit the highest peak in the world, Everest.
Am I crazy? Most probably, but the best ones always are 😉
