Every journey, as the saying goes, starts with a small step. I haven’t blogged in years and when I did it was invariably a random diatribe about everything and nothing with the occasional tidbit about running thrown in for good measure. Since then my running has become more serious and I’ve moved from the relative safety of running for 25 minutes over 5km on road to running for 24 hours over trails and mountains.

I figured it gave me something to talk – or, rather, blog – about.
