A beautiful post! I'm a runner who runs around where I grew up as well. Your writing definitely transported me to the North East and I will think about my younger memories of local landmarks when I run now. Saying hello from a landlocked West Midlands and raising a glass to your mom.
This is so good Ellen, I was absolutely transported to these places, despite having never been anywhere near them. I would like to do the same but I am so unfit, my post would be about three lines long after I pass out wheezing from running just a few meters.
Bloody hell. I'm in bits reading this.
This absolutely felled me. Thinking of the marathons I can run around the places I’ve called home.
