This is the story of Jules Hobson; an adventure racer, mountain biker, climber and runner, who in her late twenties had a lifetime of adventures ahead of her, and so many plans and ideas for mountains to climb and trails to ride.

Jules experienced the most devastating loss when Gareth, her new husband, and best friend of a decade, died on a climbing trip only eighteen months after their wedding.

To cope, and to bring her closer to Gareth – who was the person with whom she most loved sharing her love of the outdoors – Jules has thrown herself into a life of adventure.

From mountain bike guiding in the Alps to climbing trips all over Europe and an off road ride from Lands End to John O’Groats, Jules has found solace in the mountains and open skies of the world.

She gives us a precious insight into her life since she tragically lost Gareth and her adventure-based coping strategy.
