Issue 03 is a powerful collection of stories, photographs and illustrations that present our sport in a rich and welcoming way. The adventures in here are breathtaking and inspiring, with a potent mix of achievements that are reachable alongside that may be just out-of-reach by the mere mortals among us – for now at least. Robbie Britton and James Elson attempt run across Iceland in winter, a time when locals don't even venture out for a walk. Gareth Hughes and Sarah Ridgway go Skyrunning in The Lakes, and face some of the worst weather ever seen in those parts. Damian Hall recalls what he has learned from two attempts at The Spine Race, and Shane Ohly describes his adventures in Kilian Jornet's Tromsø Skyrace. There is an account of a 160-mile multi-day race run over 2,000 years ago in some inspirational locations and with extraordinary individuals, while others describe the tortuous peaks of the Bob Graham, the wild circumnavigation of Anglesey, and a long run down the A31 to Dorchester.
