Kirk-Odunubi E: Running Towards

Running Towards

How Running Helped Me and How It Can Help You Too

A compelling and sensationally honest read from one of the UK's leading and most recognised endurance runners.

'I laughed, gulped and cried as I read Susie's stories of battling through some of the hardest races on this planet as well as some of the hardest moments in her life' Sophie Raworth

'Tells it all with an openness and honesty that comes from having endured some of the world's most gruelling tests of endurance' Dean Karnazes, ultramarathoner and New York Times bestselling author

'A truly inspirational read from a brilliant and determined runner' Iwan Thomas

AN EXHILARATING READ FROM ONE OF THE UK'S LEADING ENDURANCE RUNNERS.

Susie Chan is an icon of endurance running. Since taking up running at the age of 35, she has completed the legendary Marathon des Sables more times than any other British woman, set the 12-hour treadmill World Record and was one of the first women to finish all the World Marathon Majors.
 
Susie's story is an inspirational fight against the odds. From leaving a dysfunctional marriage, managing as a single mum and tackling cancer treatment, Susie has had her fair share of adversity. Throughout it all, running has kept her going. She always finds a reason to lace up her shoes and hit the road - or the track, trail or tread. Her mantra: You never regret a run.
 
From the Moroccan desert, the Peruvian jungle and the sweltering Death Valley, to Susie's local South Downs and a running track in Tooting, her adventures take her across the globe. With Susie's down-to-earth personality, refreshing attitude and wicked sense of humour, we learn the countless reasons she finds to push herself further and the life-changing opportunities running has given her.
 
Her passion for the sport is infectious, and her story is a shining example to all in the running community and beyond.

One Small Step

Philipp Pflieger war bei Olympia 2016 der schnellste deutsche Marathonläufer. Ein Jahr später sorgte er für Schlagzeilen, als er beim Berlin-Marathon seine Kräfte überschätzte und das Rennen orientierungslos abbrechen musste. Daraus hat er viel gelernt, nicht nur über die Königsdisziplin des Laufens, sondern auch über sich selbst. Sein nächstes Ziel: Olympia 2020 in Tokio. In seinem Buch nimmt Pflieger uns mit hinter die Kulissen des professionellen Marathonlaufens. Er schreibt über die Faszination des Laufens, lässt uns Siege und Niederlagen miterleben, und gibt Tipps, was Amateure von den Profis lernen können. Er spricht über Motivation und mentale Vorbereitung, die richtige Taktik und Verpflegung, aber auch offen und ehrlich über Leistungsdruck, Doping und die Herausforderungen als deutscher Profi in einer traditionell von afrikanischen Läufern dominierten Sportart. Ein hochspannendes, leidenschaftliches Buch von einem Spitzenathleten über die faszinierende Welt des Marathonlaufs, der inzwischen so viele Läufer in seinen Bann zieht.

Warum Marathon die größte Herausforderung für Läufer ist

Laufen am Limit

Endurance, Determination and Grit: The first ever man to run the length of Africa shares his inspirational story10,000 miles. 16 countries. 352 days. Hardest Geezer, Russ Cook, is the first person to ever run the entire length of Africa. From his starting point in Cape Agulhas, South Africa, through sandstorms in the Sahara Desert, rainforests, mountain ranges and long empty roads stretched out for miles in front of him, Russ ran the equivalent of 386 marathons before finally crossing the finish line in Tunisia 50 weeks later. Through attempted kidnaps, an armed robbery where he was held at gunpoint, and the gut-wrenching moment when he was denied the right to cross Algeria and whole challenge was left hanging in the balance, Russ never once contemplated giving up. When he crossed the finish line in Ras Angela, he did so with the eyes of the world on him. Africa may have been his most physical challenge yet but it certainly wasn't his first. For years, Russ hid from the realities of life by drinking too much and losing himself in the world of online gambling, and it wasn't until he discovered running and sought out endurance challenges that life took a different turn. He soon learned that you don't get to avoid the struggle, but you do get to choose it. Hardest Geezer: Mind over Miles is an inspirational story full of sheer grit and incredible determination. 'You get one chance at life. Go and have a stab at it.'

10,000 miles. 16 countries. 352 days. Hardest Geezer, Russ Cook, is the first person to run the entire length of Africa.

Attempted kidnaps, being held at gunpoint in an armed robbery and the whole challenge left hanging in the balance when he was denied the right to cross Algeria, Russ never once contemplated giving up. When he crossed the finish line in Ras Angela, he did so with the eyes of the world on him. Africa may have been his most physical challenge yet but it certainly wasn’t his first: he’s broken the record for the fastest car-pulling marathon and been buried alive for a week with nothing but water and a camera to record the experience. In Hardest Geezer: Running Africa, Russ Cook shares how he turned his life around to face these challenges and shares his motivations and tales of incredible determination, sheer grit and endurance. ‘You get one chance at life. Go and have a stab at it.’

Every third Monday each April since 1897, the fastest endurance athletes in the world converge on Boston, Massachusetts to run planet Earth's most prestigious road race, the Boston Marathon. What began with fifteen runners toeing the start on a dirt road is now a global phenomenon, attracting millions of online viewers, more than 500,000 spectators, and 30,000 of the fastest athletes from 120 countries around the world. Books chronicle its storied history. Memoirs highlight its penchant for self-transformation. The Boston Marathon Handbook takes a different tack, delivering everything we need to know - how to prepare, what to wear, how to qualify, where to celebrate, who to emulate, how to race, and everything else critical (and not so critical) - to ensure race-day success.
In a reverent yet tongue-in-cheek style, The Boston Marathon Handbook educates and entertains in equal measure. Marc W. Pollina presents us with the definitive field guide to the Boston Marathon for participants, aspirants on the cusp of participating, and athletes who dream of participating. The Boston Marathon Handbook features tips on getting in, training, navigating Boston and the runners' expo, racing through each town, celebrating after the finish, shaking off the post-race blues, and figuring out what challenge to pursue next in one entertaining package.

Start Where You Are

*NATIONAL BESTSELLER* "From foot-binding to corsets, patriarchal societies have found ways to immobilize women, but now, marathoners and Olympians are proving that women can run like the wind!" -GLORIA STEINEM "A look behind the curtain that all women who love running and sport should read." -KARA GOUCHER, Olympic runner and New York Times-bestselling author of The Longest Race More than a century ago, a woman ran in the very first modern Olympic marathon. She just did it without permission. Award-winning journalist Maggie Mertens uncovers the story of how women broke into competitive running and how they are getting faster and fiercer every day-and changing our understanding of what is possible as they go. Despite women proving their abilities on the track time and again, men in the medical establishment, media, and athletic associations have fought to keep women (or at least white women) fragile-and sometimes literally tried to push them out of the race (see Kathrine Switzer, Boston Marathon, 1967). Yet before there were running shoes for women, they ran barefoot or in nursing shoes. They ran without sports bras, which weren't invented until 1977, or disguised as men. They faced down doctors who put them on bed rest and newspaper reports that said women collapsed if they ran a mere eight hundred meters, just two laps around the track. Still today, women face relentless attention to their bodies: Is she too strong, too masculine? Is she even really a woman? Mertens transports us from that first boundary-breaking marathon in Greece, 1896, to the earliest "official" women's races of the twentieth century to today's most intense ultramarathons, in which women are setting all-out records, even against men. For readers of Good and Mad, Born to Run, and Fly Girls, Better Faster Farther takes us inside the lives and the victories of the women who have redefined society's image of strength and power. "An essential read to normalize women's existence, excellence, and humanity within the sport of running." -ALISON MARIELLA DÉSIR
