n 2018 James climbed every
mountain in Ireland in just
eight weeks – the fastest
ever time. He walked over
1,000km in his mission to
stand atop all 273 600m high
mountains across Ireland and
Northern Ireland. He ascended
the height of Everest every
week for eight weeks in a
row, completing the peak-
bagging challenge solo and
unsupported in 56 days.The
expedition is also believed to
be the first continuous ‘single
round’ of the mountains of
Ireland. James hopes to write
a book about his Ireland
adventure, as a sequel to his
upcoming debut Mountain
Man (to be published by
Bloomsbury in May 2019)
