Trail running humbles you. You might be strong on the road, but the trail doesn’t care. It demands presence, resilience, and respect. Every climb, stumble, and uneven step reminds you—there’s always more to learn, more to overcome. Nature has a way of stripping back the noise and sharpening your focus. And in that process, you grow. Views from the Lukenya Trail Run by RunnersPoint Karen earlier today. 😻

*Pruned, But Still Thriving* 🌿 Morning run, came across this massive cypress tree and reflected upon it. It has clearly been pruned — its top cut back to make way for overhead power lines. At first glance, it looks like it had been diminished. But look keenly. Instead of growing up, it had started growing out. Wide, lush branches stretching horizontally, creating a natural canopy over the footpath. Not just surviving — adapting, thriving, and offering shade to others along the way. All the pruning we go through in life. The loss of a loved one. The job that didn’t work out. The door that closed. At the time, it feels like something vital has been cut away. But somehow — often quietly, often slowly — we start to grow in other diredirections. We discover new strength, find fresh purpose, create different paths. We become a canopy for others. If you’re in a season of pruning, take heart. Growth doesn’t always look like it used to — but that doesn’t make it any less beautiful. *KEEPLAH*

Lung cancer often shows no symptoms early on. Screening programs and greater awareness of risks like tobacco, air pollution, and workplace hazards are crucial. Early detection saves lives. The Blue Ribbon 2025 Run for Your Lungs run is scheduled for 13 December 2025 in Karura Forest. Follow us and our other channels to stay abreast of registration, runner packs etc including a lovely finishers medal that the 2024 one has nothing on! 🫁
