Some find it by running far, some by running fast. Some form communities and break down the barriers to their own freedom. But we’re all looking for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur feature story, A question of scale by Emma Cole, takes a deep dive into how races grow from grassroots to world-class events. In her view, a race’s success is ultimately about emotion: “The passion for racing comes down to how it makes us feel… We are all chasing that human feeling and I hope that never changes.”  And in our curated selection of stories, The rise of 200-milers, we explore the recent growth in ultras that push the edge of endurance to a place where reality breaks down – but it can be intoxicating. As David Bone writes in Lucky 13, “We’d done it – not just the miles, but the madness.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"This 130-page magazine brings together a spellbinding range of stories from our community.
