After climbing the three tallest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales in 24 hours five years ago, Dan Kontz was left wanting a bigger challenge.

So when a friend of his got picked to participate in a no-holds-barred race from England to Mongolia this summer, the 20-year-old Clarks Summit resident did not hesitate to sign up.

"It's a pretty dangerous trip," he said about the 10,000-mile journey. "But I'm into high adventure, and this really intrigued me."

The Mongol Rally, sponsored by London-based company the Adventurists, kicks off Saturday in London.
