I was introduced to Peter through his father in law who is looking to publish something I've written about running - he showed my musings to Peter. He was very affirming about the stream of consciousness that tends to come from me if I'm asked to write about running!... But I discovered in speaking with him a kindred spirit; a lifelong runner and now triathlete, he described his recent challenge of training for an ironman triathlon as the race of truth.

Speaking with Peter, and hearing about his joy of the movement of sport and of stretching how own boundaries, it was evident that his love of running is because he loves to run, and it was an inspirational message that ultimately must be the core reason we all run - because we love it.
