Chris Moon walks the
talk. He's survived kidnap, threatened execution, being blown
up, losing his limbs and most of his blood. He ran a marathon
less than a year after leaving hospital, tested artificial limbs
to new limits, run most of the world's toughest ultra distance
races, climbed mountains, crossed countries on foot, written
books and most importantly used his experience to understand and
illustrate the process of achievement. He speaks with humour and
passion and has inspired people around the world.
And now he's coming to Campbeltown on the eve of MOKRUN 2010, to
gave an inspirational talk to runners in the Argyll Hotel on
Saturday 29 May at 5.00pm.
One not to
be missed and likely to be packed out, get you name in early for

free event to
