He spent his early years climbing trees and chasing elephants out of his garden, and this unique childhood has been the fuel for his adventurous ambitions. Well-known for his quirky take on endurance sports and adventures, Sean came to the UK in 2002 with just £100 in his wallet and started working in Cambridge cutting 12,000 lettuces a day, and then as a freelance photographer in London, whilst living in a tiny room in London with 7 other people, spending any cash he earned on various travels and bonkers adventures. Sean Conway is now a multiple world record-breaking ultra-endurance athlete. In 2011, Sean had nothing to his name after selling his photography business for £1 with a dream of cycling around the world. Sean was in a severe accident on that round-the-world cycle whereby he got run over, suffering a fractured spine. Determined not to give up, he continued to cycle another 12,000 miles around the world. A decade on from that bike ride, Sean didn’t give up on his dream of pushing boundaries, and he now has multiple world records to his name and is considered to be one of the most accomplished ultra-endurance athletes of his generation. Sean famously broke the world record for completing 105 Ironmans in 105 days; a feat no other human on the planet has ever done. He was also the first person to swim the length of Britain, is the only person to have completed a length of Britain triathlon, has completed the world's longest triathlon of 4200 miles, and has the world record for the fastest self-supported cycle across Europe navigating 1600 miles of Ukraine and Russian roads in the process. He’s also cycled around the world, run a marathon in every UK national park, completed a triathlon around Wales, and founded the global running challenge called The 496 Challenge. Sean has written 6 books and has 3 documentaries on Amazon Prime. He has talked to the likes of Google, Microsoft and M&S and has done a prestigious TEDx talk. His story on resilience, determination, and not giving up when things go wrong provides an inspiring narrative for people to use in their own work and personal lives.
