A finish line long overdue.

His words
My first trail race finally done and honestly… hard to put into words what hit me when I crossed it.
A few years ago I was heading into the Peaks just to clear my head, running to escape bad health news and convince myself I could still do hard things. I cancelled races, doubted my health and talked myself out of trying more times than I can count.
I have a great set of friends that got me big into Road running and gave me confidence again but the trail goal sat quietly in the background for years.
Huge thanks to the Peaky Runners , the community who first got me into the trails. It’s been a great community to share their stories, their routes, their gear tips and showed me what people can overcome.
Thank you for everything.
Well done James, we are proud of you
