“Anything that is a cultivator of joy, that’s where I want to be at, and running could very much be one of those things.” - Storm

Why we run.

It’s a given that running can be good for you, but there’s more to it than physical fitness. We reached out to runners to gain perspective on the less tangible benefits. How does running help you improve your mental well-being, overcome challenges, and become the best version of yourself?
