Plumpton teen athlete safely home from gruelling charity trek
A gifted teen athlete has returned safely from a seven day 100km charity trek in Greenland.
Jamie Lambert, 15, from Plumpton, raised funds to hold the Parallel Youth Games, inspired by a six month debilitating hip injury he suffered last year.
Jamie said: “The Greenland trip started off very challenging, with steep terrain, temperatures down to -20C at night and sleep deprivation due to night time shifts for polar bear watch! It became easier, and the team managed 80km through the mountains, despite a couple of days stranded in tents by storms.”
