Bellarine local Kate Barsby first began running to raise money for Parkinson\u2019s Disease.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Those first steps have turned into a love for endurance running and photography, which see Kate taking pictures on her local morning run and offering those pictures for sale.<\/p>\n

\u201cI prefer early morning sunrise sessions. I find them so therapeutic and the mental health benefits of these sessions are huge for me,\u201d Kate said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel so lucky to see what I see at this time of the day. I started taking pictures out on my running adventures and this is where my little hobby Run and Snap was born!<\/p>\n

\u201cIt makes me happy to see other people getting joy out of the beauty I see. I also hope it encourages them to get out and experience it for themselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe the mental benefits of exercise far outweigh the physical benefits and I try to communicate that to those around me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kate can often be found in Barwon Heads running along some of the Bellarine\u2019s stunning beaches.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of my favourite local running tracks include the Surf Coast trail, 13th Beach at low tide and the Barwon Heads Bridge to the Ocean Grove track.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kate has also offer some running tips for beginners:<\/p>\n
