Mark Beaumont
Mark Beaumont's first taste of adventure was at the age of 11, when he decided to cycle across Scotland and he first made fame aged 23 for an 18,000 mile round-the-world bike race, where he smashed the previous World Record by a staggering 82 days. In 2015 Mark rode the length of Africa at a pace of 160 miles a day, taking 18 days off the previous best. Off the bike, he has ocean rowed through the high Arctic and survived after capsizing whilst rowing the Atlantic. Mark was named Top Scot in 2011 and has received an Honorary Doctorate in Law, The University of Dundee.
Mark is passionate about sharing his and others stories, and is an experienced and hugely engaging speaker, having held Ambassadorial roles with companies for the last decade, and completed national speaking tours in the UK and internationally.
