In our very first episode, we talk to Anil Toraty, the winner of the UK's Movember 2023 Going the Distance award. We talk to Anil about his past achievement of running 465 km in 2022 and discuss his mindset and thought process before embarking on an even bigger journey this Movember to raise awareness for men's well-being.
Who am I: Hi everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself and say a quick hello to you all and thank you for joining me here. My name's Ken (hi!), I'm both an avid recreational runner and someone who's has used running for several years as a space and activity for the improvement of my own personal well-being.
This is also the final major project for my BA of Communications in Media Studies which I hope to continue beyond university. If you like what I do and want to see more, please subscribe, and follow Run On.

Welcome
Personally, over the years I’ve found that running has played a big part in maintaining a healthy emotional state, its become obvious that the benefits running has on my personal well-being are as important as the physical motivation and are now a large part of why I run, why I wanted to begin this journey into the world of podcasting.
Run On’s mission is to establish a unique perspective on the connection between the sport and positive personal well-being through informative discussions with runners of all levels. To help gain insight on how and why they use running to benefit their own well-being as well as talk to running who are using their own running as a platform to help break down stigmas surrounding well-being and open the door for important and necessary conversations that go beyond the act of running.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
