Finn, a Scout from Scotland, and his mum, Kerry-Anne, are currently hiking over 1000 miles around the entire Welsh coast path to raise money for charity. If Finn succeeds, they believe he’ll be the youngest person to walk the path as a non-stop hike.

Finn and his mim are following the 870 mile Wales Coast Path, then joining the 177 mile Offa's Dyke Path along the border with England.
They began in April and have walked for over 70 days now, hoping to finish by the end of July.

It's not been an easy walk. They've had to find places to camp in all types of weather while carrying all their equipment with them.
But it's been worth if got the people (and dogs!) they've met along the way. At one stop, Finn even became an honorary Welsh Scout.
ALT It's not the first time Finn's completed a challenge like this.
Last year, he hiked the 630 mile South West Coast Path in 64 days and raised over £4,500 for RNLI.
He hadn't even finished the hike when he decided he wanted to do it all again. So, he's fundraising for RNLI again this year.
Good luck on your current challenge, Finn and Kerry-Anne, keep going!
