About the book
Richard Askwith embarks on a journey to rediscover the pure joy of running, exploring how modern obsessions with data and performance have transformed what should be a simple, liberating act into something more complex and pressured. Through lyrical prose and honest reflection, this exploration takes readers across wild British landscapes where running becomes a form of meditation and reconnection with nature. Askwith examines the history of running, from ancient traditions to contemporary culture, whilst questioning whether we've lost something essential in our quest for faster times and GPS-tracked routes. It's a thoughtful, inspiring read for anyone who's ever laced up their trainers and wondered what running is really all about.
