A series of panel events about running this August in London

There are a few themes that I have explored over and again in my work: running culture, run clubs, the female experience, and highlighting South Asian runners. These are the things that I care the most about, for varying reasons.

Last summer, I put on my first event. I brought together some titans of the running world to talk about run club culture . More recently, I’ve had conversations about how both community and consumerism fit into the running world.

I’m returning to London on August 12-14 with a series of conversations hosted at Runlimited in Central London.

Please come! What you pay to attend is up to you. Yes, I’m channeling the power of punk rock community to make these DIY events come to fruition.
