Push the reset button to unleash your body’s power and endurance for running naturally. If you’re like 80 percent of runners, an injury is going to force you to stop your running routine at some point this year, and the demands of daily life only add to the wear and tear on your body. Life in the modern world has trashed and undercut dedicated runners’ ability to transform their running. The harsh effects of too much sitting and too much time wearing the wrong shoes has left us shackled to lower back problems, chronic knee injuries, and debilitating foot pain.

Story
In November 2019, Claire Smith became the first British athlete ever to complete a continuous Double Deca Iron Distance triathlon. 48 miles of swimming, 2,240 miles of cycling and 524 miles of running in 28 days, overcoming sleep deprivation, injuries and exhaustion in the process. However, but for a chance conversation, Claire may never have competed in triathlon at all - let alone achieve a podium place in one of the world’s hardest races.

Story
Running is more than just putting one foot in front of the other at a faster pace. It is a complex interplay of biomechanics, physiology, psychology, and culture. It is a pursuit that spans continents and centuries, from the endurance hunters of our ancient ancestors to the elite athletes of today's ultramarathons. But running is not just a science—it is an art. It is an expression of the human spirit, a celebration of movement, and a connection to the world around us. It is a canvas upon which we paint our goals, our fears, and our triumphs.
