In 2010, following a 25-year mining career, Martin Parnell started his "Quests for Kids" initiative. Over the next five years he completed 10 "Quests". These included running 250 marathons in one year, setting five Guinness World Records in endurance events and summiting Mount Kilimanjaro in 21 hours. At the end of 2014, he had raised over $1.3m for the humanitarian organization Right To Play and 27,000 children had been given the gift of hope.

Martin has published three books including “THE SECRET MARATHON-Empowering women and girls in Afghanistan through sport”. His next book “THE AGELESS ATHLETE – Age is just a Number” will be published on September 28th 2021 by Rocky Mountain Books.
