Nicholas Thompson
An upcoming book to be published by Penguin Random House.
©2025 Nicholas Thompson (P)2025 Random House AudioReseñas de la Crítica
“It would seem disingenuous to say that Nicholas Thompson’s mesmerizing and moving The Running Ground isn’t really about running. But while running—from its practical agonies and ecstasies to its philosophical and deeply personal undercurrents—suffuses this book, something Thompson writes early on holds the key to its deeper revelations: ‘Running is the simplest of sports. But if we look closely, it can teach us about the hardest things in life.’ It’s those hard things that make this an endlessly surprising, revelatory, and heart-rending read.”—Anna Wintour, global editorial director of Vogue
“Most of us struggle to escape the specific gravity of our ordinary selves through the discipline of education and learning. Nicholas Thompson’s amazing memoir charts his awakening (and ours vicariously) through running. Here body, mind, and heart become an advanced machine that transcends age and time and generations, uniting him and us in the race of a lifetime. Bravo!”—Ken Burns, filmmaker
“The Running Ground is more than a book about running—it’s a deeply human and beautifully written story of honest introspection in which Thompson illustrates how the simplest sport can help us navigate the most complex terrain of our own lives.”—Kilian Jornet, ultramarathoner, world record holder for fastest time running up Mt. Everest
