I joined a man running his first ever half marathon after weight loss. Having received an email to the JOG ON inbox, I became very interested in Sonny Hacker's journey, and his story of how discovering running for distance instead of time became a turning point in his weight loss and fitness.
Thank you to Sonny for allowing me to join him on the longest run he's ever undertaken. Perhaps he and I will take a trip to Crib Goch in the future.
