What People Are Saying
“Though it can be a distraction, Instagram can also be an inspiration. At least it was for Aimee Laurel, of Toronto’s Night Terrors crew … so she grabbed a friend and started running around downtown Toronto at night. Plenty of her friends worked irregular hours so the unconventional meeting time of 11 p.m. worked well for them. Part of the attraction for people was the thrill of running when you’re not supposed to, she says, but for some, the posted photos can contribute to a sense of accomplishment.”
