Mike Lambert hopes to set out in early June for a 2,000-mile trek.
A kayaker has said he is “determined” as he hopes to break a Guinness World Record by paddling 2,000 miles around Britain in less than 40 days in memory of his late mother.
Mr Lambert said it will be “really nice” to feel detached from the General Election campaign as he will be returning from his challenge after July 4. Mr Lambert, based in Walton-on-Thames, north-west Surrey, is expecting to encounter a variety of wildlife during his 39 days on the water and recounted seeing a minke whale while training in the Irish Sea.
As part of his world record attempt, he must film two minutes every hour and get two signatures at each landing.
