This year Martin Elcoate from The Green Runners ran almost every single one of the 400 squares of a custom OS Map centred on his house. What a fascinating, personal challenge! Along the way he discovered surprises, took photographs of each grid square, ran more local trails than ever before, did a bit of trespassing and scrambling through bushes and met some interesting people, all in the name of a better connection with the landscape that he has lived in for the last 20 years, and promoting his commitment to The Green Runners - to run more locally.
