Reseñas de la Crítica

"Refreshingly free of new-age jargon and psychoanalysis. It's about determination and the pursuit of the 'happy effect." (Herald Sun (Australia)

"If you're stuck in an exercise rut, this book will give you a rather rude kick up the backside . . . it certainly shamed us into lacing up our Nikes!" (Closer)

"Amusingly vicious . . . Excellent advice all round." (Emma Thompson)

"Ruth is an inspiring running-buddy . . . By the time I unpack my summer wardrobe, I'm sure my inner Grit Doctor will be my best friend." (Flic Everett Daily Express)

more interesting than I thought

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I've been researching ways to improve my running habits and decided to give this a go, because, well, information is good. While some of the assumptions didn't really fit my lifestyle, since I already run, it turned out to be a really good listen, and unexpectedly humorous in parts. The recipes in part two sound tasty, and I'll be giving them a go.
The style might be an acquired taste for some people, but I liked it.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Definitely. It's a short book, and I'll probably listen several times, since it'll be good for motivation. of interesting as well.

No BS here

If you could sum up Run Fat Bitch Run in three words, what would they be?

Ruth's forthright, humorous and refreshing approach to getting off your ass and doing something about your self dissatisfaction.
Her straight forward, dry humour. For example, when discussing the benefits of increasing your water intake, her statement of "Don't like water? Oh, so your fat and spoilt". Made me laugh loud!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Run Fat Bitch Run?

I used to run and loved it but stopped due to injuries. I will be starting again because of this book.

Which character – as performed by Ruth Field – was your favorite?

The title certainly gives you a clear insight of what you get. Ruth tells it how it is, no mollycoddling here. She pushes all the bullshit diets and exercise programs aside and encourages you to get up, get out of the house and get running.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not a thing.

Any additional comments?

Such a refreshing book, thank you Ruth.
