Be Adventureproof.

Move. Beyond.

Meet the Team

My name is Charlie, and I would consider myself an all-around mountain athlete. I have worked all around the world from Japan and China to Canada and the European Alps. I have a deep passion for moving fast in the mountains. Now I want to show people how they can get there themselves and become Adventureproof.

Funder of Beyond Ultra, Charles Gay

In recent years trail running has taken over all my other hobbies. Doing races such as Cotswold Way Century 100 and Lakeland 100. I guide with Pure Trails Adventure in places like Mallorca, Albaina, and Kyrgyzstan.

My upcoming challenge is Wild Horse 200 in May of 2025. 200 Miles across South Wales. I also volunteer with SARA to help find missing people in the Severn Area.
