Description - Keep on Running by Phil Hewitt
Marathons make you miserable, but they also give you the most unlikely and the most indescribable pleasures. It's a world that I love a world unlocked when you dress up in lycra, put plasters on your nipples and run 26.2 miles in the company of upwards of 30,000 complete strangers.' Phil Hewitt, who has completed over 20 marathons in conditions ranging from blistering heat to snow and ice, in locations from Berlin to New York, sets a cracking pace in this light-hearted account of his adventures on the road. This story of an ordinary guy's addiction to running marathons looks at the highs and lows, the motivation that keeps you going when your body is crying out to stop, and tries to answer the ultimate question, Why do you do it?' AUTHOR: Phil Hewitt is Group Arts Editor for all seven West Sussex newspapers, where he's been a journalist for 20 years. SELLING POINTS: Everyone knows a runner. No one ever knows why they do it, or what to buy them for Christmas or birthdays. This book would be the ideal gift. Will appeal to the same audience as Born To Run, Feet in the Clouds and What I Talk About When I Talk About Running. Perfect for running clubs and sales at marathon events. Includes marathons run in London, Chichester, New York, Paris, Amsterdam, Steyning, Isle of Wight, Dublin, La Rochelle, Berlin, New Forest, Rome and Mallorca.
