Like The Wind Magazine - Issue 43

Like the Wind focuses on the uniting power of running. Although it can be a solitary pursuit, it lends itself well to the company of other people – as a vehicle for connection, friendship and community. Even a seemingly solo race effort is bolstered by a selfless crew and the cheers of strangers from the curbside.
