"Focus on what you have not what you have lost..."

Former British Army Officer, Chris Moon has survived being taken prisoner in Cambodia by the Khmer Rouge (one of the most brutal terror groups in history) and managed to negotiate his release and that of two colleagues from threatened execution.

He left the Army to work for a charity clearing landmines in Asia & Africa.

In 1995 Chris was blown up in a supposedly safe area of a minefield in remote East Africa, losing an arm and a leg. He survived initially because he treated himself. About fourteen hours after the injury he arrived in South Africa where doctors said they’d never seen anyone live with such a small amount of blood.

In 1997 he completed the gruelling Marathon De Sables and inspired many to follow in his footsteps. Since then he’s run the world’s toughest ultra- marathons, including the Badwater Death Valley 135 mile ultra and the 95 mile West Highland Way Race. He’s run numerous ultra-distance events and several one thousand mile events.

Chris was awarded an MBE for his work in demining and in recognition of his humanitarian work and he was given the honour of carrying the Olympic Flame into the stadium at the opening ceremony of the Nagano Winter Olympics.

Throughout all that Chris has endured never gave up, he went one step beyond…

Tune in to hear his amazing story.
