In this episode I get to talk with a retired military man and extreme expedition team member. Barry joined the Royal Marines Commandos when he was just 17, completing one of the toughest infantry trainings in the world. He spent 26 years in the military becoming a mountain leader and cold weather survival expert, often training in the harsh Norwegian winters. After his retirement as a Regimental Sergeant Major, he is now transitioning into the world of extreme expeditions. During this first part of our conversation, Barry shares about his time in the military and what lessons he learned from that training. He then tells the story of his expedition with Tim Jarvis, recreating Shackleton’s historic escape from Antarctica. Next week we will finish that story and then hear about phase one of Barry’s record breaking attempt through Antarctica.
