Farm Runner: Combining farms, fitness and community

An Essex farmer is spearheading a community project which takes the noble effort of a Sunday morning run and turns it into a valuable public outreach opportunity. Ben Eagle leapt at the idea of to hosting an informal 5k run around his farm on the Essex coast, about six miles north of Clacton-on-Sea. Joining forces with fitness and wellbeing company Thrive Outdoor, run by instructors Andy Bareham and Stephen Mayzes, Ben has been hosting groups of self-motivated joggers at Devereux Farm in Kirby-le-Soken since June. He says welcoming people on to his family's farm for a fun run is a chance to forge bonds in the community while also achieving greater public engagement for the work that farmers do to produce world-class food and care for the environment.
