It seems funny that it was only a year ago that I applied to be a FrontRunner because so much has happened in the team since. People who I'd previously only seen on social media or in the pages of running magazines have become firm friends. Team members have become parents for the first time. Races have been won … and lost. Course records broken and new PBs won.
It's been a year of smiles.
And that's why ASICS FrontRunner is important to me. It's about smiles and about having fun and enjoying our sports. In the FrontRunner team we all share a passion for running – and socialising, but there's no comparison in times, goals or years of sports. It's all about the people. And about the love of a good run. And sometimes the stories of the bad runs. Because they're important too.

Does this sound like something you'd enjoy? Then I'd recommend you to apply to be a FrontRunner. It's been such a positive experience for me. New friends made, new sports tried (SUP rugby anyone?) and some amazing memories. Not forgetting Pete dressed up as a banana in Germany trying to win a 5k … or Marcus pole dancing … or Becca and Corey warming up my feet with a hairdryer after a cold run in Bath!

... And don't forget your smiley photo!
Nice experience! I've been considering to apply next year, is it difficult? I've been running since the beginning of the year and I love how hard and rewarding has been for me. It made me realise anything can be possible and it is just matter if practice and consistency.
ReplyDeleteHi Claudia, please do! We've got such a great bunch of people and very welcoming! There's a wide range of people from ones with loads of experience and ones just starting out! Glad you're enjoying running and finding it rewarding - it really does get easier too! :)
