12 months ago, an idea to take inspiration from Charlie Dark’s London based Run Dem Crew, and plant a collective seed in the North, crept from paper, into the people, and onto the tarmac. In an attempt to inject that collective ethos into the Northern streets of Manchester, Still Waters Run Deep began, and one year on, this bunch of Northerners are joined in running, in life, creativity, and in friendships. With 10K’s, marathons, and personal goals in the bag, this year has been one that has seen many individuals grow in a number of ways. With one of the gems that we have had the pleasure of seeing do so, being film maker & photographer, James Measom.

James’ creation is inspired by the people that have collectively come together to spend the past 12 months running around our rainy city, Manchester.
