Although blind, Miles has successfully completed the 150-mile Marathon des Sables, the Saharan Ultra-Marathon – “The Toughest Footrace on Earth” and the Siberian Ice Marathon – “The Coldest Marathon on earth”. He competed in an 11-day ultra-marathon across the Gobi Desert, has crossed the entire Qatar Desert non-stop and unsupported and has hauled his own sled over 400km across Antarctica. He has climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Blanc and has 40 sky-diving jumps to his name! In his latest project – “Around the World in 80 Ways” Miles and two fellow adventurers, each with a disability, used 80 different modes of transport to travel around the world.
