James is an avid runner, originally from England but currently travelling around Asia, keeping his daily run streak alive.

At almost 500 days of running everyday, James sees it as a running challenge as well as an opportunity to combine two of his greatest passions - running and travel.

He treats running as mental therapy and openly discusses how it’s benefited his mental well-being over the past few years.

James has completed a variety of distances in the UK and around the world, and is currently battling against busy travel days, heat and humidity as well as the unpredictability of new running routes every day.
