Run with the Ancestors

Today I ran the Run with the Ancestors virtual race.  It was good to get out for a winter run after avoiding the sidewalks because of ice. I still slipped some, but it was overall a strong run. The virtual race was overall well done, but some of the phrasing in the narration seemed glaringly out of touch and colored by a colonial view.

Trace a million years of human history in Britain in a thrilling virtual run! Follow in the footsteps of our ancient ancestors as you listen to the story of their evolution from barren glacial lands to the modern metropolis of today…
