In December 2010, former Wales and Barbarians flanker Richard Parks will start the unique 737 Challenge – a seven month expedition to climb the 7 Summits (the highest mountain on each of the world’s continents) and venture the last two degrees to the South Pole and the last degree to the Geographic North Pole. And all this against a seven month clock

In an exclusive interview for WRU TV, Richard reveals how the challenge was created, discusses his personal motivation behind this incredible event and talks about training for the challenge and raising funds for Marie Curie Cancer Care.
