DiscOLOvery #2: instarunners in Alaska
After going to New-York, we thought we could take you out of the city, and take some fresh air… in Alaska.
The “last frontier” is one of mother’s nature best showcases, so no wonder why so many trail runners dream of this beautiful land.
Here are some Alaskan runners portraits.
Let’s get started with Matt and Major’s adventures.
As a nurse, you could think that the only thing Matt feels like doing after a long shift is relaxing in the couch. But what he actually does is putting his shoes on and going outside for a run.
His account is full of beautiful landscape pictures, that make running in the snow look like an easy thing.
Matt and his dog Major are definitely our favourite Alaskan instarunners!

Michelle is a (fast) runner, a wife, a mom, an online coach, and a great cook.
That’s a lot but it looks like she manages everything pretty well and her instagram is a testimony of all these different parts of her life, put together in one place.
We wish her all the best in her sub 3 hours marathon project!

Paula Jackson, or the “Alaskan Moutain Girl”, is a trail runner and a dog lover.
Take a look at her account to discover Alaskan landscapes and great running pictures, as well as some extra pictures of her trips, as in last February when she went to Nicaragua!
With such great views, we would love to run in the snow, wouldn’t you?

This account is not exactly a Running instagram account, but it’s so cool we could not keep it to ourselves!
Tara is a Yogi, who practices her postures in the craziest places, surrounded by snow and delightful landscapes.
She is also an explorer, and is not afraid to bagpack for new adventures.
