Ditch the bikes and run until you burst at four semi-marathons

“If you just want to run, you can run a kilo. But if you want to find a new light of life, then you run a marathon,” was a popular quote from the 2012 film “Seven Something.”

Apparently those words have started a fire, as four races will occur around town next month for those already bored of their bikes.
