Summary: After heartbreak and divorce following a 12 year relationship, I needed to go on a journey. Inspired by others out there doing seemingly crazy things, running what appeared to be impossible distances, I thought to myself, “why not me?”. In reality, there were many reasons including the fact that when I came up with the idea, I had never even run a marathon. But over time, the idea of Viv Runs Europe grew organically, running from Poland to Spain, a distance of 3,850 kilometers. I would follow the path my gran took as a refugee at the end of the war and then continue towards the southern point of mainland Europe. It took six months from July 2014 to January 2015 with many highs and some lows too. A true adventure, one of the most life affirming experiences of my life so far.
