9780091960193: Footnotes: How Running Makes Us Human

Synopsis

Running is not just a sport. It is the breaking down of our increasingly structured and demanding lives. It affords us the freedom to step off life’s pathways and into the bracken. In a world that is a constant onslaught of information, alienating us from our environment and ourselves, running reconnects us, lifts the spirit and allows our minds out to play.

Footnotes will take you out to tread London’s streets, climbing to sites that have seen a millennium of hangings, or down the crumbling alleyways of Ruskin's Venice. It will transport you to the cliff tops of Hardy's Dorset, the deserted shorelines of Seattle, the giant redwood forests of California and the glacial debris of Scott's Edinburgh, using debates in literature, philosophy and biology to explore that simple human desire to run.

Liberating and inspiring, this book will remind you why feeling the earth beneath our feet is a necessary and healing part of our lives.
