Energising audiences across the speaking circuit, Jamie McDonald, an extreme adventurer, is igniting motivation in every audience he meets. Backed by his alter ego, Adventureman and a personal life story that is an inspiring as they come, Jamie is providing dynamic, entertaining, and transformational talks to a wide range of audience demographics. From award winning fundraising pursuits to world record breaking bike rides, Jamie has defied the odds to become a real-life superhero, and now encourages others to do the same, in their own capacity.
A double world record breaker, Jamie achieved his unprecedented results using just a bike, a treadmill and his inspiring mental resilience. Currently boasting the title for the Greatest Treadmill Distance in 7 Days, and the Longest Time Spent on a Static Bike, having achieved 224 hours and 24 minutes in the saddle, Jamie is a leader in resilience and mental endurance. Not content with two world records, Jamie has also completed a USA solo run, involving 210 marathons, cycled from Bangkok to Gloucester unsupported, and ran across Canada coast to coast. Motivated to raise much needed funds for charities that have previously supported him, Jamie is an inspiring adventurer.
Having spent the first nine years of his life undergoing treatment for a rare spinal condition, a weak immune system, epilepsy and other medical complications, Jamie has overcome every barrier in his way and as a speaker, supports others in doing the same. Equally proficient in virtual engagements as he is at in-person talks, Jamie reignites a passion for life in his audiences, drawing on personal experiences of adversity, resilience and motivation, he ensures audiences have the tools to thrive. Combining entertaining content with inspiring anecdotes, Jamie’s talks are engaging from start to finish and leave a positive impression long after the event ends.
Following on from his success feats, Jamie has published ‘Adventureman: Anyone Can Be A Superhero’ a best-seller and has founded Superhero Foundation which supports children with illnesses. To date, Jamie’s heroic adventures have seen him raise over £1 million for charity, and he was awarded the Pride of Britain accolade for Fundraiser of the Year 2019.

“Fantastic virtual session from Jamie McDonald, as ever! Incredible feedback from the staff many of whom included family members in the session. Was superb to see everyone having such fun, albeit remotely, and especially loved it when he got everyone doing international dance moves by many! For any business, I would highly recommend using Jamie this way to tell his unique and inspiring stories of resilience and coping strategies in difficult and challenging times.” - Capita
“Jamie’s session did exactly what we wanted to achieve, both inspiring people and providing a number of reference points which we can carry through the rest of the week and beyond. Actually in a couple of follow up meetings yesterday, and one of our continuing virtual conference sessions today, Jamie’s words are being used to reinforce messages for our work teams – that has to be a true measure of success! This will be one of the highlights of our year.” - Southco, Inc.
