Aside from marathons, Jake also pursues hiking.
Back in September of last year, he went hiking in Scotland.
“6 days solo hiking the West Highland Way and Scotland pulled all the stops: 30km days, change in weather every 15 mins, a wild dip, midges— lotsa midges, wonderful strangers, even better sights,” he posted last year. (Push Team)
