What's this, then?

Hello, whoever this may be (probably one of our many Facebook friends). Firstly, thank you for trusting us enough and having the curiosity to click on the link. You've made it to a little corner of the internet that's really rather boring at the moment, but we hope to make it pretty exciting. 

This is because we've all just decided to take on a challenge by becoming runners, jogging regularly for at least the next 2 months. Our aim is to uncover our inner joggers, and to create something wonderful out of what we find, eventually. We're prepared to sweat, stretch, starjump, win, fail, drink, gasp and get our our legs out. We're even prepared to run in the rain.

This isn't for charity, unusually, and we won't ask for your money at any time (probably). Rather selfishly, this is something we're primarily doing for ourselves. None of us are natural runners, but we all love testing our limits, and we want to feel our bodies morph into those of amateur athletes. We want to go back to our roots and to be as instinctive as our ancient ancestors. We want to find out why it feels so easy to run, and yet so difficult at the same time. And we want to explore why we, as human beings, feel the need to run our lives away-both literally and metaphorically. 

This blog will act as a documentation of our experiences, our research, our ups and our downs. We also hope that it will act as a springboard to create a fantastic piece of theatre out of our experiences, which is our end goal. If you have anything you'd like to share with us, at any time, then please feel free to comment. We'll be setting up all means of social media so that you can have your say-as loudly and clearly as possible.

But for now, we still stand at the starting line. Please follow us as we start to run.

Hope, Emily and James x
