Storyline

Neil Gresham teams up with Belgian sport/competition climber Anak Verhoeven to take on a unique, multi-discipline '24/8s' challenge in the Lake District. Inspired by Dave MacLeod and Dan Turner, who both completed multi-disciplinary rounds in the UK, Neil set out to create a similar challenge. His ambitious goal was to complete a V8 boulder problem, an E8 trad route, an 8a sport climb, a D8 dry-tooling route, and hike eight Wainwright summits, all within 24 hours. Straight 8s is a tale of partnership, perseverance, and the unyielding human spirit, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Lake District. As Neil and Anak push their limits, they discover that the greatest challenges are best faced together.
