Description

Angus Read graduated from university in July and, like any adventurous 22-year-old, wanted to go travelling.


His plans grew, as did his desire to do something to not only better himself, but also raise money for charity, so he planned to do it all - a solo trip where he'd make his way across Europe, running a marathon in as many countries as he could, fund raising for Cancer Research.


He's just finished this four month long trip and joined us to discuss the planning of such a trip, why running solo across Europe was the best experience he could have hoped for and how a rogue pizza in London nearly scuppered the whole experience.
