Your Pace or Mine?

What Running Taught Me About Life, Laughter and Coming Last

De: Lisa Jackson

Narrado por: Lisa Jackson

Lisa Jackson is a surprising cheerleader for the joys of running. Formerly a committed fitness-phobe, she became a marathon runner at 31 and ran her first 56-mile ultramarathon at the age of 41. Unlike many runners, Lisa's not afraid to finish last. In fact, she's now done so in 25 of the 100-plus marathons she's completed so far.

Your Pace or Mine? isn't just Lisa's story. It's also that of the extraordinary people she’s met along the way - tutu-clad fun runners, octogenarians, and 250-mile ultrarunners - whose tales of loss and laughter are sure to inspire you just as much as they've inspired her.

This audiobook is for anyone who longs to experience the sense of connection and achievement that running has to offer, whether you're a nervous novice or a seasoned marathoner dreaming of doing an ultra.

An account of the triumph of tenacity over a lack of talent, Your Pace or Mine? is proof that running really isn't about the time you do, but the time you have!

Fun and Inspiring Running Book

I think this book was recommended to me after reading some other running books. It felt like the author’s love letter to running. I loved it! Some chapters made me laugh out loud, some made me cry. It’s so impressive that she has done so many marathons all over the world. It’s inspired me to maybe go for my first marathon overseas! I love travel as well, so I’ve picked up another one of her books which is more focused on that.
