London, UK, October 28, 2010 — It’s Adventure Week at WideWorld magazine, with stories of bold and brilliant adventurers as they cross Iceland on foot, sail the Northwest Passage in an open boat, and navigate three continents in 13 days.

This week, it’s all about the adventures at WideWorld magazine: audacious, bold and brilliant. WideWorld regular reporter, Alastair Humphreys, tells of his attempt to cross Iceland by foot and packraft, learning a few lessons in self-sufficiency in the process.

WideWorld also publishes the incredible story of two hardy men who sailed the Northwest Passage – in an open boat. Completing their 1500-mile, 60-day journey at the appropriately named Resolute Bay, this story has to be read to be believed.

In the news, WideWorld covers a new attempt to beat the record time for a journey between London and Cape Town. In the cramped conditions of a Range Rover Discovery, three men face 10,000 miles, 21 countries and 3 continents – all in under 13 days 8 hours 48 minutes! Enjoy Adventure Week.
