Lake Baikal, Siberia is the deepest and biggest fresh water lake in the world. The challenge is to race from one end to another, approximately 379 miles.

Angus will be self sufficient carrying all his food and kit on a pulk whilst covering the distance. The idea is to use skis, skates and walking when necessary, with overnight camps on the ice. What makes this even more challenging is the conditions, extreme temperatures of -20-40 degrees celcius and 200kmph winds. It's going to be fun!

Angus says; "What's keeping me going is knowing I'm raising funds for a charity thet deserves every bit of help it can get. Claire House Children's Hospice.It is a very special place for the families that have used the hospice over the years."

Please support Angus with this challenge, be part of this epic adventure and follow the training and fundraising events.
