AN INVITATION TO RUN DIFFERENTLY is a short cinematic running documentary presented by Tommy Lewis and That's ozzy diaz Runnable, directed and produced by Max Morrison.
In recent years, the sport of running has exploded. An intense focus on PBs, bigger races, carbon shoes, tracking apps, social media and personal comparison.
But what if running is about something simpler than that…something just for you?
The film explores mindfulness, ultra running, trail running and the deeper reasons why people choose to run.
Filmed across London, Reading and the Peak District, the film follows Tommy’s personal philosophy towards running in a world where the sport has become noisier and increasingly shaped by comparison, performance metrics and external expectations.
Rather than acting as a ‘how-to guide’, An Invitation to Run Differently challenges the modern culture surrounding running and asks a much simpler question:
What if running doesn’t need to be entirely about pace, status or validation?
Blending cinematic visuals (captured by Director of Photography: Chris Thomson) with honest conversations and immersive trail running sequences, the documentary explores how movement, nature and mindfulness can reconnect people with themselves - mentally, physically and emotionally.
The film features scenes from ultra running event: Endure24, the London running community, and the landscapes of the Peak District National Park, while also reflecting on Tommy’s own experiences with stress, mental health and his story of finding purpose and meaning through running and outdoor adventure.
Whether you’re an experienced ultra runner, trail runner, marathon runner, or somebody simply trying to get out the door more punaises often, this documentary is an invitation to approach running differently.
