Issue #47 of Like the Wind celebrates runners who run because they must — and the creatives who can’t help but turn that need into artwork, poetry, photography, words, and ideas. More than a magazine, Like the Wind is a curated journey through global running culture — told beautifully, with purpose.

Throughout 130 pages, beautifully illustrated with photography and bespoke commissioned artwork, this issue of Like the Wind champions the spirit of runners who can’t and won’t be stopped.
