Are you just starting out as a runner? This helpful guide will point you in the right direction. Taken from the perspective and learnings of someone who had not run since they were at school many decades before. This unfit idiot goes out to see what they are capable of. After many half marathon's, marathons and ultras of up to 70 miles, these learnings have been put into a book. It just goes to show, that you don't need to the fittest or the fastest, you just need determination.
Have you ever considered going for a run or is it more of a necessity? Do you want to start running but don't know where to begin? If you don’t then this useful guide will get you on the road, or on the trails and get you on your way.

Written from the point of view from a relatively new runner, Jason Darby started running in 2017, when a joke bet to do a half marathon turned into an obsession to see how much further and longer he could run. Since then he has run many 10k's, lots of half marathons, some marathons and more Ultra's than he probably wants to admit.

Taking these experiences and putting them into this book, hopefully providing advice, knowledge and gotcha's that you really need to know if you intend to take up running or have just recently started.
