Elbrus in Russia — in June 2012. He reached the summit of Africa’s Mount Kilimanjaro in September 2012, Finally, he reached 20,000 feet on Argentina’s Mount Aconcagua in the Andes, aka “Mount Death,” before being turned back by weather, in March 2013.
JBL has been a longtime supporter of Beyond Rugby Bermuda, which is a partnership between the Family Center and Bermuda Rugby Football Union. It works with kids at two schools in Bermuda — Cedarbridge High School and Dellwood Middle School — and uses core values of rugby to help develop skills to graduate while instilling values.
