About a week ago we came across The Lunch Runner, just a normal guy, who has taken it upon himself to take requests and take you for a run outside, by having you select points along the route or items to photograph.

Catch his adventures by following him on twitter here. Rob got onto the band wagon and asked him to find a bottle of Haut Espoir wine, somewhere and in return, a case of it would be his.

After finding a bottle of Gentle Giant 2006 at Caveau in Bree Street, the case was his.

What started as a simple conversation lead to your editor going on what was supposed to be a 4km run today, with the Lunch Runner, to deliver his case of Gentle Giant. It turned into a great adventure with us going 3 hours, talking wine for quite a lot of the way. An avid fan, he was totally unawares that our cases contained 12 bottles in stead of 6, and nearly fell off a mountain ledge when the information was shared. You can follow the run we did in some pictures here. The only thing lacking from the adventure was a bottle (or two) of 2008 Shiraz Rose chilled on ice at the Cable Car Station.

The Haut Espoir team really love the concept of Your Lunch Run, as we are often stuck in the office over lunch, when we really wish to be outside. The fact that we could get involved in any sort of way in such an amazing concept is fantastic for us, never mind that we actually got to go running with the man.

His identity remains a secret, his mission is to grow his concept, and inspire people all over the world.

Support him, interact with him, and who knows, maybe you could be next to win a case of Haut Espoir Wines.
