EBOOK
About
Twenty-six runners ranging in age from 46 to 76 share their secrets, motivations, and experiences in the fields of running. All are active runners, and many presently hold world age-class records. Some have held world records, and have achieved world level performances at the Olympics, Commonwealth, and European games. But, Running in the Zone isn't about super achievement, it is about getting the most out of the running experience regardless of age or even ability.
This book is for anyone interested in running, and running-related sports, whether they are elite age-class runners wanting to keep up performances or newcomers, considering taking up running in their middle or even advanced years. Many of the contributors didn't start running until they were over 40, and some didn't achieve their best personal performances until they were in their 50s. You will meet men and women who have a life-long interest in running as well as those who took it up as personal challenges. All are inspiring in one way or another, and have something valuable to teach, not necessarily about running, per se, but rather personal satisfaction, giving back through voluntarism, and commitment to a goal or purpose.
