After 12 years working in the corporate world, Jamie Ramsay decided to trade in the suit and tie for a pair of running shoes and hit the open road. In 2014, he began a 17,000 km solo and unsupported running expedition from Vancouver, Canada, to Buenos Aires, Argentina, raising money for CALM, Macmillan, and WaterAid. The expedition took him through 14 countries and included diverse landscapes such as the Atacama Desert, the Andes mountains, and the notorious Darien Gap. In March 2016, Jamie was named Scottish Adventurer of the Year and won the Physical Endeavor Award at the National Adventure Awards.
