Everest Motivation
A talk by Ed Buckingham
Ed Buckingham is a truly inspirational and a motivational man. He won the Cornish Gorsedh award for Exceptional Endeavour in 2013 in recognition of being the first person to raise the St. Piran’s Cornish flag on the summit of Everest. Ed is an inspiration in how far a bit of motivation and a lot of determination can take a person.
He was born and raised in Cornwall, where he still lives and works. He was the first Cornishman to climb the highest summit on each of the world’s seven continents, and he is probably the first postman to achieve this amazing feat. Ed has published a book called 7 Summits: 1 Cornishman Climbing the Highest Mountain on Earth, which tells of his hard-ship and near-death experiences in theultimate test of endurance.
