EP-190 CYCLING BRITAIN: Conquering Health Challenges and Rediscovering Freedom with Ann Whatmore

In this episode of the 10Adventures Podcast, we sit down with the incredible Ann Whatmore, who recently cycled an astonishing 4,000 kilometers across the UK. What makes her journey even more remarkable is that she lives with severe eosinophilic asthma, a condition that once left her struggling with daily tasks, let alone cycling. Ann shares how she went from grieving her former active self to embracing a new identity as an adventurer, all thanks to a supportive community and an electrifying first ride on a recumbent trike.

 

We dive into Ann’s route through stunning landscapes, her encounters with the kind Say Yes More community, and the joy—and occasional challenges—of camping and long-distance travel. Her story is proof that resilience, kindness, and saying “yes” can open doors to incredible adventures.
