Laura Kennington

British adventure athlete, author and speaker with a passion for the endurance capability of the human body

Tales from the river, road and sea!

Previous adventures include cycling all 1600 miles of the world's longest coastal route in Ireland, cycling Scotland’s North Coast 500 route, running the length of Fuerteventura (100 miles) in 4 days and circumnavigating three of the Channel Islands using three different sporting disciplines. Her most notable adventure (so far!) has been cycling 3700 miles along the North Sea-facing coasts of 8 countries, from Scotland to Norway.

A strong believer in the positive impact that adventure and sport can have on children and adults alike, Laura uses her human powered journeys as a platform to inspire and encourage others.

Laura’s talks are about the importance of mindset when it comes to challenges of any kind. From the planning and logistics that go on behind the scenes, to the endurance capability of the human body and how to deal with the unexpected!
