Some runs are about speed, others are about distance. This one was about both; and doing it together.
Forty runners gathered at the STOX office for our longest Social Run yet. The demand was so high, we couldn’t fit everyone in, but those who made the cut brought the energy from the first stride. After a quick warm-up, we rolled out as one pack, finding that steady rhythm that makes kilometres fly.
The loop took us through forest paths and quiet stretches where the pace and conversations flowed side by side. By the finish, the smiles said it all. Yeah that’s right, longer runs build more than endurance; they build connection.
Back at HQ, recovery mode was on: fresh falafel wraps straight from the food truck, cold drinks in hand and an ice bath for the brave.
Our longest community run so far; proof that every extra kilometre is another step forward, as runners and as a crew.
