Born to run: the fast growing community within Embankment Run Club

Running has been having a renaissance moment of late; Gen Zers and Millennials are flocking to run clubs, Parkrun’s popularity has been steadily growing year on year, and the 2025 Robin Hood Half Marathon was the biggest one yet with over 14,000 participants involved. Matteo D’Alesio speaks to one of the city’s most vibrant running crews, Embankment Running Club, to hear how they value inclusion, sociability and safety over performance.

We spoke to Scouting for Girls ahead of their gig at The Weekend Festival

Since their formation in 2005, Scouting for Girls have earned a well-deserved place in the English pop-rock hall of fame, and cemented that status with the release of their latest studio album The Place We Used To Meet in 2023.

Ahead of their upcoming gig at The Weekend Festival, we asked the band to share some insights into their music, touring, and dream gigs.
