A life full of running adventures.
Running has given me so much and it continues to do so.
Whether it’s running happier, further, to unplug or reconnect, I try to celebrate what running adds to my life and help others to do so the same.
I also like to share new routes and sights on my running adventures in the UK, Europe, and beyond.
Who’s behind Rundure?
Hi, I’m Stu Goulden, an avid runner for 15+ years. I can often be found roaming free in and around Yorkshire (UK). In life, I’ve learned that the map is not the terrain and remain grateful for the soul-nourishing qualities of a good run.
I aim to share my favourite run routes for others and post new ones as I discover them. I’m also interested in runner psychology, applying the principles of Stoic athletes, urban exploration jogging or “Awe Walks” to my runs. When not on the move, I’m a marketer and award-winning journalist.
What’s my running background?
I run or walk 10km a day. Minimum.
What we repeatedly do, every day, ultimately forms the results we enjoy and the life we build. Change your habits and you’ll transform your life.
I’ve also run 10+ marathons (most recently the Lisbon marathon) and the odd adventure run (such as running Hadrian’s Wall over 3 days; the most remote and best Holy Island route; plogging in my local neighborhood). That’s thousands of sunrises, countless UK running trails, and an incurable addiction to buying colorful running gear.
My running interviews:
- Daily Express. Why I’m addicted to ‘plogging’ – collecting litter on my runs.
- Metro. Studying cloud formations to make running more fun.
- Other publications: The Times. Guardian. The Mirror.
What’s does ‘Rundure’ mean?
The name reflects my view that running is an enduring source of happiness and personal growth.
