The Meek shall inherit the earth

The Salmon Run (now in its third year), gives runners from Ultra to 5km and non runners the chance to express their care for this fascinating and seriously endangered keystone species, by getting involved in a running ritual, which takes people on the salmon's migratory river journey over 50 miles from sea to spawning ground and in doing so, connects the many communities alongside the Exe. Ceri speaks to the founders Anne Marie and Jo Salter of Tidelines CIC about the Salmon Run, which takes place on September 29th, 2024.

There's nothing conventional about David Sharpe, former world 800m junior champion, European outdoor silver medallist and European indoor 800m champion.
