Guess who's back?

Hey, we're back! ;-)

Yes, itch2run is now thegreatescape! 
We've been pounding the pavements for almost a year now, met many people and had endless fun over the past 12 months.
And the journey is just getting started.
Running has opened many other doors in our lives too, leadership roles and its has molded us to become a better person overall.
So yes, so many things we have taken away from running, but we have just only untied the ribbon of the greatest present.
So to sum up running in one word, I'd say it is an escape.
An escape from reality, an escape from mainstream society, an escape from troubles.
You literally RUN your troubles away.
Same may not get what I am talking about, some do. It's okay.
It took me some time to realize that there was much more to running than just speed and timings.
I recently read a book from the library, it's called 'The Runners Guide to the Meaning of Life' It's a masterpiece by Amby Burfoot as he brilliantly illustrated in words on the lessons we can take away from running. 
You can get the book here


I can't explain it all in one post, so yes, Lenney and I have created this blog.
Not a new beginning, but a new sense of direction rather.
And we will never forget our roots..
This blog is our way of escaping, and sharing it with the world.
It's  not only about running, it's about 

  • Trying New Things
  • Being Adventurous
  • Going Crazy (Not insane, there's a fine line)

We're gonna live our lives to the fullest and embrace the limitless possibilities with an open mind! And to share our journey with you!
In time, you'll get what we mean. ;-) 

Running is going to save humanity, I don't know how, but it will. 

Enjoy reading beautiful people,
