About the poems#
Each post starts from a real photo and a real run — the place, the distance, the training details are genuine. The poem itself is written in the voice of the named poet, drawing on their publicly documented style and themes with the help of AI. Naming a poet describes the style being evoked, not a claim that they wrote or reviewed it — none of the poets named on this site have any connection to it or its owner.
Not professional advice#
Some posts touch on training, nutrition, or gear (tagged training, nutrition, kit, trail-notes). This reflects one person’s personal experience and opinion, not professional coaching, medical, or dietary advice. Nothing here should replace guidance from a doctor, dietitian, or qualified coach — especially before changing your own training load, diet, or gear setup. Run at your own judgment and risk.
Copyright#
Photos and original writing on this site (context lines, site text, this disclaimer included) belong to The Heather Mile unless stated otherwise. Poems here draw on each named poet’s publicly documented style and themes rather than their copyrighted text — no existing poem is reproduced or copied.
