Bad Boy Running Ep 186 - George Rendall on rise and fall of Mile 27 runner's coffee shop
We know cyclists have a ton of places they can hang out socially (so we can avoid those places...), but what about runners?
Well, the runner's cafe Mile 27 aimed to offer a place for runner's to come together to both run, socialise and be a community in central London. And it worked... for a time.
In this episode, Jody and David speak to its founder George Rendall about the idea behind the cafe/club, what it took to get working and what happened in the end (spoiler: he has another coffee shop, Lane Eight Coffee in Dulwich)
The great thing about this episode is how open and honest George is about everything that went wrong and why it didn't quite work as planned. A real insight into trying to turn your ideas into reality.
Enjoy!
