Have you ever wanted to kayak down a gorge in New Zealand? Or run night-time marathons through the Californian desert? How about rollerblading 100 miles around Amsterdam? You have? Then pour yourself a cup of cocoa, get those jim-jams on and prepare to escape into a world of adventure with this collection of life-affirming short stories from award-winning adventurer Anna McNuff. Go road trippin’ through the Canadian winter. Bivvy out on a mountaintop in Wales. Explore pockets of wilderness around the city of London or take a journey by bike across Europe. Always upbeat and often insightful, Bedtime Adventure Stories is the antidote to adult life. It’ll have you drifting off into the land of nod, dreaming up journeys of your very own - and it’s proof that the only thing standing between you and the next wild adventure is a willingness to step beyond your front door. Because grown-ups need bedtime stories too.

    'When I ran, I ran for pleasure. I didn’t run for times, to win, to impress: I ran for me. When I ran my bum cheeks rubbed together, so much so that if I was going on a long run I’d have to ’lube up’. I maintained that I was not a ’real’ runner - I just liked to run so that I could eat cake.'Anna was never anything like those ’real’ runners on telly - all spindly limbs, tiny sh...

And for that I had no answer." Disillusioned with corporate London life and with no prev...
