Mike Allsop is a dynamo, an airline pilot and mountaineer who ran seven peaks in seven days on seven continents. He's also a motivational speaker, author of bestseller High Altitude, a husband and the father of three children.

He's found a way of incorporating his adventures into family life by taking each of his three children on major one-on-one expeditions. This has led to some incredible challenges:

* Trekking over 100 km in the Himalaya with each child at the age of seven - most recently Dylan

* Twelve-year-old Maya attempting the world's highest stand-up paddle board on a freezing lake at 5,300 metres

* Ethan, at 15 years old, struggling through altitude sickness to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro and set his own world record

* Fundraising to buy a new house for a Sherpa widow after the devastating earthquake of 2015


The challenges and excitement continue, with the family continually dreaming up new adventures.

Airline pilot, Everest mountaineer, adventurer and extreme marathon competitor Mike Allsop is an ordinary family man proving that anybody can accomplish extraordinary things. He lives in New Zealand.
