The genesis of the world jog
I just thought I would give a quick explanation of how the world jog has developed over the years. I first got the idea during one of those wonderful endorphined-filled runs in Dublin’s Phoenix Park over 20 years ago.That was before we had really light weight camping equipment.Everything had to be backpacked.It seemed so problematic to run,so instead I got thinking about walking.So,I planned a world walk 12 years ago.I got all my equipment,got the tee-shirts printed but never started the walk. I literally had the tee-shirt but never did it as they say.
The logo of the world jog is a modification of the world walk. I am kinda proud of that design which came to me in a flash all those years ago.I have given this website designer serious grief to get it modified for this journey.Sorry and thanks Simon! who is a round-the-world-cyclist
The big black letters with the white stripe in the center signify a road with a hiking boot for the ‘L’ in world.
Runners and walkers don’t have to backpack their equipment,food and water anymore as we can push it in a jogging stroller,a buggy of sorts. I am being sponsored by Chariot Carriers and will use their Cougar 1 Jogging stroller
