Hello! Welcome to Wild Ginger Running, the UK's best Trail Running YouTube Channel for gear tests, advice, athlete interviews, race recces and inspiration. Whatever your level, distance, shape or size, you're welcome & supported here. Ask me any trail running or outdoorsy questions too! My history: In 2010 I was excited to co-found Trail Running, the UK’s first magazine dedicated to my fave sport. As editor, I grew the magazine from twice-yearly to bi-monthly, with a website, Facebook page, Twitter & YouTube channel. While leading our #Run1000Miles Facebook group in 2017, I fell in love with the immediacy and audience engagement that social media offers. That’s why I created Wild Ginger Running in July 2017 - a YouTube channel and social media platforms with weekly trail & ultra running advice, gear reviews and inspiration to a fast-growing audience of all levels, shapes and sizes.

We use an advanced automated system to collect YouTube influencer profiles by regularly monitoring the YouTube database. Our system identifies the profiles of United Kingdom-based YouTube influencers within the running niche by focusing on the following key metrics:
Relevance to running: Our system analyzes each influencer's username, bio, and posts to confirm that their content is related to the running niche.
Location Verification: Our system checks for the inclusion of city or country names in profiles, and where necessary, we analyze flags, localized posts and profile bio data to confirm the influencer's location in United Kingdom.
Public Profiles Only: We exclude private profiles, even if they are United Kingdom-based and publish running-related content. Our system only extracts the public profiles of influencers.
Sufficient Number of Posts: Our system picks the influencer accounts that have a consistent history of posts. It proves that the influencer is active and engaged in their content.
Minimum Follower Count: Our system prioritizes United Kingdom-based running influencers with a minimum of 5,000 followers.
By analyzing these key statistics, our system automatically identifies the most relevant running influencers located in United Kingdom, extracts the data, and adds it to our database. The information is then processed, verified, and classified to ensure accuracy and relevance.
Heepsy uses an Al-powered algorithm to identify the most relevant running YouTube influencers in United Kingdom.
Identifying Influencer Location in United Kingdom:
Profile Location Information: First, we check if the influencers profile explicitly mentions city or country. If the profile contains certain specific cities from United Kingdom, or any other reference to United Kingdom, we automatically mark the profile as United Kingdom-based.
Bio and Content Analysis: If no explicit location is mentioned, our system scans the influencer's bio for any references to United Kingdom, such as cultural symbols, language spoken within United Kingdom, or location- specific hashtags that could indicate the influencer's connection to United Kingdom.
Use of Flags and Emblems: In cases when the influencer doesn't mention a specific city or region, we look for flags in the bio that indicates United Kingdom or any related symbols suggesting origin from United Kingdom.
Localized Content: We analyze the influencer's content for any localized posts that show landmarks from United Kingdom, events, or local cultural references. This can help us identify their location and target audience within United Kingdom.
Identifying running relevance:
Identifying Key Terms: We begin by searching for specific running-related terms, such as 'running' or any other industry terms in an influencers profile (including their name, bio, and posts).
Expanding with Synonyms and Variations: Our algorithm recognizes related terms within the industry and other running specializations. We also account for variations, ensuring a comprehensive view of the influencer's expertise.
Multilingual Detection: To ensure a global reach, we use an Al-based multilingual sentence transformer to detect influencers in different languages, so we don't miss out on valuable running voices around the world.
Assigning Relevance Scores: Each influencer profile is assigned a score based on their relevance to the running category. The higher the score, the more aligned their profile with your campaign needs.
Prioritizing Top Influencers: In our recommendations we prioritize the influencers with the highest relevance scores. This helps us to ensure that the profiles suggested are the best fit for your marketing strategy.
During the location identification process, we assign a score to each YouTube influencer profile that reflects its relevance to running and United Kingdom.
Then we use these scores to rank the profiles in our listings. Influencers with higher relevance scores in both categories - running and their connection to United Kingdom - are ranked higher in the results.
As a result, when you search for running YouTube influencers in United Kingdom in our database, the most relevant profiles appear first. This makes it easier for you to find the best match for your project.
We update our database monthly to ensure you have access to the most current and relevant running YouTube influencers in United Kingdom. The profiles listed reflect the latest data as of March 2025.
Our automated system continuously monitors YouTube, tracking changes in follower count, engagement levels, and content activity from running influencers in United Kingdom. This ensures that our database remains accurate and relevant and helps you find the best running YouTube influencers in United Kingdom for your campaigns at any given time.
