1:25 Face Your Fears - Jan Blythe
When 65-year-old Jan Blythe turned up at the beginning of her Outward Bound course, she was initially mistaken for one of the participants' grandmothers. But the rest of the group of 20 to 30-somethings were quick to realise she was just as capable - or determined - as them. Jan overcame several fears during the course, and has since added a few more adventures to her bucket list.
