Going for a run can change your state of mind in so many ways. As anyone who has ever pulled on a pair of Brooks and hit the pavement knows, it provides both clarity and distraction. With all the endorphins rushing around your body the world can seem like a completely different place.

This beautiful short film by Matan Rochlitz and Ivo Gormley follows runners through Victoria Park in east London. The runners were posed questions that would normally be way too intimate, or too confronting to answer.

Their responses are inspiring; in this moment of vulnerability these people open up and share their innermost thoughts in such a humbling and philosophical way. One man talks about his dying father; a woman confides about her sex life. It’s all amazing.
