“Nick is a hugely inspiring figure and an exceptional storyteller. At a pivotal moment of global political, social and environmental turmoil, Nick’s running expedition has given him a very unique view of the world and our place within it – the common bonds we share and the challenges we face as an international community, and the individual differences and cultural characteristics we should celebrate and protect.

“Nick is an incredibly inspiring speaker. He delivered a very popular and engaging talk as part of the National Running Show this year. He is a great guy, that’s in the midst of achieving something truly extraordinary, and yet he manages to speak in a way that is relatable and accessible to everyone. We’ve already re-booked him for next year. Thank you Nick.”
