About Jonny Huntington
This winter, determined to push his physical and mental limits, and having undertaken numerous endurance challenges in the past, Jonny embarked on his toughest expedition yet. Over 46 days, Jonny covered 911 km of Antarctic tundra, joining a select group of people who have successfully skied to the South Pole without support.
Jonny skied for around 11 hours a day, dragging all his equipment and food in a sled weighing more than 100kg. Throughout the expedition, he battled Antarctic temperatures as low as -40°C, high winds, crevasses and relentless 24-hour daylight.
A sports scientist with expertise in psychophysiology, cognition and nutrition, Jonny strives to help others optimise their performance, have greater confidence in working towards ambitious goals, and build a more sophisticated understanding of what is really meant by resilience.
In the buildup to his expedition, and since completing, Jonny has been delivering talks and workshops for corporates and schools. His corporate work has seen him deliver talks for insurance, property and tech businesses both as one-offs or as a series of workshops helping deliver organisational change.
