Let’s talk of adventures

A SERIES of talks about adventure and exploration is beginning in the Capital.

Tales of Adventure is being organised by runner Mark Cooper, who ran from Amsterdam to Barcelona in 56 days to raise thousands of pounds for the Edinburgh Headway charity.

The first session will hear from three speakers who have undertaken challenges, including Stuart Doyle, who will discuss his 3000-mile cycle from Athens to Edinburgh.

The first event begins at 7.30pm on April 19 at The Beehive Inn in Grassmarket. Tickets are £5 on the door.
