Brooks x Cynthia Erivo: A Love Letter to the Run

Our love letter to the run, co‑authored by icon @CynthiaErivo as she pursues a personal best, returning to her home streets to take on 26.2 miles in London on April 26, 2026.

She demonstrates the reality of elite preparation, revealing how she trains not just her legs, but her mind.

"No matter who expects me to, I'm not chasing perfection. A good run is simply the run that happened. It's a sort of moving meditation: head, legs, heart."

Let's Run There.
