Galloway hills, 45 miles and 5200 meters of ascent, are some of the most brutal terrain of any hills I know in the UK. No GPS allowed, and you must complete the event as a team of four….what an awesome concept.

Arjit Inspires by Being Bold

Here’s Arjit sharing an inspiring story of an event he created.

“During the event I learnt that there is more to running than just follow the training plan or to get out of the bed and go for a run. I learnt to respect people’s time and personal limitations. Many times an assigned person didn’t turn up to the slot and I had to get out to fill the gap - twice during the week in the middle of the night. Instant reaction was to get frustrated though a perspective shift would suggest that it’s a slot for someone and it’s an event for me. “

A Royal Mile Marathon: Running Through Lockdown - Chiara Franzosi

In the past few weeks we have been treasuring words like adaptability, opportunity, kindness, and optimism. We have been reconsidering all our daily routine, relationships, diet, training and thoughts about why we run and what are priorities in life. We have been amazed at the acts of kindness we have seen in the world and the powerful impact they had on others.

Together we train smarter, run stronger and race harder.
