Haven
After decades of addiction, a woman with no athletic background discovers trail running and a fiercely supportive community that could help her outrun her past.
After a lifelong battle with addiction, 43-year-old Haven Johnson found sobriety – and with it, something unexpected: trail running.
With no previous running experience, she turned to the Squamish trails in search of stability, purpose, and a reason to believe in herself again.
This film traces Haven’s two-year journey from her tentative first jog to completing the gruelling Squamish 50km.
Along the way, Haven discovers a trail-running community that lifts her up and pushes her forward, refusing to let her journey be a solitary one.
This is a story of resilience and the power of community that keeps showing up.
