Inspired 6: Pen Hadow

I’ve always been interested in Polar exploration and the idea of pushing your body to the limit in sport or physical challenges so it was really great to have the opportunity to listen to Pen’s experiences. I thought it was very inspiring that one day after being inspired by reading a book, he just decided that this is what he was going to do. The challenges he faced and especially the near-death experiences really make you sit up in your chair.

Pen was very inspiring, reminding me to believe that you can do anything you decide you want to despite what others might think or say. Pen also highlighted how important understanding and conquering your surrounding was to success.
