After a devastating breakup leaves him emotionally shattered, he begins to run simply to survive the silence.
What starts as a desperate attempt to endure slowly becomes something far more profound.
With every mile, buried memories rise back to the surface:
childhood abandonment, violence, emotional neglect, and the invisible wounds carried across a lifetime.
When he is unexpectedly selected for the London Landmarks Half Marathon, the race becomes more than a physical challenge. It becomes a fragile promise of reconstruction. A path back toward the version of himself he thought had disappeared forever.
Set between London, the Basque Country, Normandy, and the corridors of memory, Beyond the Race is a deeply introspective literary novel about trauma, resilience, identity, and the enduring marks left by childhood.
Written with emotional intensity and atmospheric prose, this novel explores:
Some wounds never truly disappear.
They simply learn how to run beside us.
