From sea to summit, Jessica Hepburn tells tales from her new book Save Me From the Waves, which charts her journey of survival, endurance and personal growth. An unlikely athlete, Hepburn hates exercise, only discovering its assets when she finds herself heartbroken and in her forties. Now, she is the first and only woman to have completed the ‘Sea, Street, Summit’ challenge (swim the English channel, run the London Marathon and climb Mount Everest) in the world. With only Desert Island Discs to keep her company, Hepburn consumed over 3,000 episodes during her challenge … perhaps another record that she may well hold (although this can’t be confirmed).
