TEASER 👀 I’ve been working on something in the background with my boy Tom, the true hero of VERTual July. We’re currently looking for testers for Midpack Hero, a new trail running game that takes just 2–5 minutes a day. Create your own character. Train. Race. Chase FKTs. Buy gels, upgrade your shoes and see how far you can take your running career. All set in the real world. Intrigued? Drop me a DM.
