Why Do It?

Running is never just about the running – it’s about the REASONS we have for running. The transformation that’s happening in our lives. In our newest publication, Running is Life will:

Connect the global community of runners

Capture our inspirational and insightful experiences

celebrate them in a meaningful, personal, and tangible way

Play Video about Close up of a runner in profile.

Everybody has a reason why they run and no one story is going to be the same. That’s something beautiful about the running community; it’s a safe place for people to share their stories, and that’s why I think this book is so unique — it gives everybody an opportunity to share their story and to feel known.
