Hey Runners,
Most people like a holiday – even a running holiday to a wine region or marathon of a lifetime. But imagine running around the whole world and taking five years to do it!
Serge Roetheli has quite understandably now hung up his running shoes – turning to new adventure and endurance challenges.
The determination and beautiful images shown by the new running film based on Serge’s adventure embody the impulse that we all have when we put our trainers on – to get out in the great outdoors and exercise our freedom.
