Running tales from Simon

Running with Thurrock Harriers
Joining Thurrock Harriers was a turning point in my marathon journey. What started as solo runs soon became group sessions filled with encouragement, advice, and camaraderie. There’s something powerful about training alongside people who share the same goal—every interval, every long run feels lighter when you’re part of a team. The club taught me discipline, pacing, and most importantly, that running is as much about community as it is about miles.
