Why Run If No One Is Chasing You?

When a new running book is unleashed on the public it is often another in the endless series of how-to” manuals dealing with the latest scientific methods for improving race times, increasing speed, or adding mileage to a workout. Why Run If No One Is Chasing You? celebrates a more lighthearted side of running, like speedy Africans (Ken-ya Slow Down?), race bandits (Curses on You!), and pre-race meals (Carbo-Loading at Pierre’s). The stories pull you along on a high school cross-country race (Making the Team), a slippery hill run (Trails and Tripulations), and a groovy 26.2-mile event (The Woodstock Marathon). Why Run If No One Is Chasing You? is a book that can be enjoyed by all runners, from casual joggers to hard-bitten ultra-marathoners.Martin, Timothy is the author of 'Why Run If No One Is Chasing You?' with ISBN 9781424116089 and ISBN 1424116082.
