If you’re on the fence about this, get off it and try a run – I am so pleased that I did!
I’d been running roads for years because trails terrified me. Sam sorted all of that. I just turn up, follow the group, and discover places I never knew existed.
It’s crazy just how many new places I’m discovering .
