Author Event Jessica Hepburn Save Me From The Waves: An adventure from sea to summit
Date: Thursday 17th Oc
Location: Red Lion Books
Join us for a unique and special evening with Jessica Hepburn Author and Unlikely-Athlete-turned-Record-Breaker. In her forties after a succession of hard and harrowing life experiences Jessica started to exercise her way out of heartbreak. She has now become one of the world’s most extraordinary endurance athletes – the first (and currently only) woman to complete ‘the Sea, Street, Summit Challenge’ which is swim the English Channel, run the London Marathon and summit Mount Everest. Her new (third) book Save Me from the Waves charts her journey from sea to summit, all fuelled by listening to every single episode of her favourite radio programme Desert Island Discs. It’s a story about living big and bravely when life doesn’t go to plan; the redemptive power of music and the mountains; and finding friends and family in the most unexpected places. The book is an adventure in itself and this event might just set you off on your own adventure of a lifetime.
