ABOUT
Louis Alexander is a 25-year-old professional explorer, adventurer and world record holder.
From running through many of the harshest environments on Earth, swimming across shipping lanes, to summiting some of the world’s most notable mountains, Louis has conquered numerous endurance feats at a young age.
His endeavours have raised tens of thousands for charity, gained features in international press including National Geographic, Sky News and BBC News, and also earned an invite to be the Guest Speaker for 10 Downing Street. He was named by The Times as the ‘Modern-day Byron’ after his successful swim across the infamous Hellespont strait, which separates Europe and Asia.
In December 2023, Louis completed his journey to run marathons in the most remote corners of all Seven Continents. During the 14-month project, he ran through two deserts, Alaska, Australian Outback, Amazon Rainforest, Arctic Circle and Antarctica. After facing heat, humidity, ice, snow, and wildlife encounters, Louis is one of the youngest members in history of the ‘7 Continents Marathon Club’. In July 2024, Louis completed seven marathons swims in all of the classical Seven Seas. He is the first and only person in history to have ran and swam ‘The Seven’.
Louis is a proud ambassador for his two main sponsors: Thomas Franks, for whom he delivers regular talks when at home, and The Body Lab, where he prepares for his expeditions in London.
