Sir Ranulph Fiennes is a British explorer, who was born in 1944. He was
the first person to visit both the North and South Poles.

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 saved his life.

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 almost stopped 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 usually have very tired 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 2008, he reached the top of Mount Everest.
