Dark Skies Series

Sat 26th October 2024 - Sat 18th January 2025

Runner in a green shirt jumps energetically along a dark, wooded trail during the Moonlit Meadow Run 2021. The path is illuminated by soft lights, creating a dynamic and adventurous atmosphere. A woman wearing a race bib with the number 105 is running through a forest path at night, illuminated by a spotlight. She is smiling and raising her hands in excitement. The path is surrounded by dense, leafless trees, and event logos are visible at the bottom. Two people in red jackets run on a muddy path in a misty, grassy landscape. They approach a wooden gate and signpost, with one person slightly ahead, both appearing focused and energized. The scene is foggy, with muted colors. A person in a red jacket stands in a narrow rocky gap with water rushing around their legs. They appear to be outdoors, near a waterfall or fast-flowing stream, against a backdrop of wet rocks and ferns.
