For one brilliant season in 1983 the sport of fell running was dominated by the two huge talents of John Wild and Kenny Stuart. Wild was an incomer to the sport from road running and track. Stuart was born to the fells, but an outcast because of his move from amateur to professional and back again. Together they destroyed the record book, only determining who was top by a few seconds in the last race of the season. Running Hard is the story of that season, and an inside, intimate look at the two men by the author of It's a Hill, Get Over It and The Round.
This honest book provides a holistic and empathic approach to depression and mental breakdown. Jon Grogan addresses the way in which Christians struggle to rationalise mental illness and faith.

Run Baby Run draait om de weddenschap tussen twee lopers: Nydia (26) en Hans (53). Twee stijlen, twee levens en éen wedstrijd: de marathon van Berlijn. Nydia is jonger, leuker en hipster. Dat laatste mag je dan weer niet zeggen van haar, want dat woord is hopeloos ouderwets. Dat heb je de hele tijd met Nydia: constant het gevoel dat je achterloopt. Behalve als het om hardlopen gaat. Want ze traint zoals ze leeft: grillig, good looking, gezellig. Hans is van de generatie lopers die zich – net iets te oud – alsnog in van die mouwloze hemdjes steekt. Waarschijnlijk omdat het een seconde of 30 tijdwinst zou kunnen opleveren en dus een personal record. Snelheid is namelijk een ding bij deze types. Trainen met horloge en hartslagmeter en dan alles achteraf grondig bestuderen. Dit aanstekelijke boek gaat over twee vormen van hardlopen, en vooral over twee levensstijlen. Over hoe het echte leven je trainingsplannen in de war kan gooien. Ga je rennen als je werk meer vraagt dan je lief is? Als je dochter in het ziekenhuis ligt? Als een burnout je trainingsschema dwarsboomt? En wie is dan de snelste op de marathon van Berlijn?

Charlie Spedding describes himself as ‘not particularly talented’ – at least, compared to the group of people he had chosen to find himself among. These were the athletes in the Olympic marathon. So how did he end up with a bronze medal? How did he win the London Marathon? And why does he still hold the English record for the distance? In this remarkable autobiography he explains how – how someone who was almost bottom of the class when he first went to school, and even worse at sport, eventually turned himself into a genuinely world-class athlete, competing in top marathons all over the world, and genuinely going from last to first. As well as the enthralling life story of one of ou...
