Running has always been precious 'me time'. As a carer, finding time for myself can be challenging, and this is my chance to switch off and recharge. Unfortunately, recent experiences have transformed what should be a fulfilling activity into an unpleasant ordeal.
Recently, in West London, someone shouted at me: “You can’t run, and you don’t belong here, Asian woman. Go back home.” I was proudly wearing my t-shirt that reads ‘Asian Women Run' - the name of the running club I founded to embody our strength and resilience.
