Beyond the Road
The way we see the world is shaped by the knowledge we inherit, the experiences we carry, and the memories we hold onto. These stories quietly become part of who we are, shaping the lives we choose to build.
More than any race or medal, running has become a way to ask questions closer to home, between one another and within ourselves.
Who are we?
Where did we come from?
What are we running for?
How are we running it?
We are always living in the space between the past and the future. Beyond the Road is a space to explore the stories unfolding in the very present. To look beyond the miles, the results, and the finish lines, and discover the deeper meaning in the journeys we share.
Every athlete carries a story. Each one has the power to take us through a dream and back to a reality we have not seen before, or to a reality we now see in a new light.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18, Philippians 3:13-14
The Place We Call Home
After finishing a university degree, what will you do if you have a gap year? Well, Matt went on a mission to explore Australia. Matt was one of my friends who introduced me to ultra trail running back in 2020. Ever since then, he has continually pushed the boundary and went on so many adventures. Here he shares his favourite runs from each state and of his 655fortakayna project.
