Sir Ranulph Fiennes is a British explorer, who was born in 1944. He was
the first person to reach both the North Pole and the South Pole on foot
and he was also the first person to walk across the continent of
Antarctica.

One summer’s day in 2003, he was sitting in a plane at Bristol Airport

when he suffered a heart attack. He was taken to a local hospital where a
team of doctors worked hard to save his life. He was very lucky to
survive.

Just four months later, Fiennes ran seven marathons in seven days on
seven different continents. He ran the marathons (a distance of 42 km
each) to raise money for charity. He ran with a friend and they completed
the marathons in Patagonia (South America), the Falkland Islands
(Antarctica), Sydney (Australasia), Singapore (Asia), London (Europe),
Cairo (Africa) and New York (North America). They slept on the plane, ate
bananas and drank milk to give them energy.

Fiennes had some difficult moments. He was close to giving up during the
Singapore marathon. It was very hot and when he reached the end he

thought he couldn’t run another one. But after he had eaten some food
and had a short rest, he changed his mind. When people run a marathon,
they have very tired and painful legs the next day but Fiennes could still
run and walk after seven marathons – incredible!

Although he is afraid of heights, in 2007 he climbed the north face of the

Eiger, a terrifying climb even for experienced mountain climbers. Finally,
in 2009 he reached the top of Mount Everest.
