Sandy Miller
International Mountain Leader
My running journey started when I was very young: my father used to send me and my brother out running along the lane on which we lived, so we would burn off energy! Later, in my teenage years, running became something that I did to train for other sports. This continued until I got to university, when I started to run longer distances. It was then that I started to realize how much I loved running. A couple of years after university, I was living in the UK’s Lake District and was fortunate enough to meet some fell runners. That was the start of my life as a mountain runner! Twenty years later, I still love running in the mountains, whether for fun, guiding clients, or taking part in trail and Skyrunning races.

Patagonia Black Hole Duffel
A few years ago, we started looking for the perfect bag for our clients to move their belongings from inn to inn, when they’re trail running the Tour du Mont-Blanc. This is it! The 55-liter size has enough room for a few sets of town clothes and personal effects.
