"Couple on the Run is a valuable contribution to fitness, friendship and relationship-building that enables the reader to move from inspiration to action and will enhance the lives of people around the world." Jeff Galloway, US Olympian, Best Selling Author and Running Expert "No-one should underestimate the enormity of the feat of this suburban, middle aged couple. If this is what partnering and Partnerunning is all about, then I say, 'Bring it On'" Ron Clarke, World Record Holder and Running Legend "Together they have run close to 60,000 km's training and entering events across the globe. For Andrew and Sue O'Brien marriage and marathons go hand in hand." National Nine News (Australia) Foreword is by Running Legend Ron Clarke MBE. Afterword is by Best Selling Author and US Olympian Jeff Galloway. About Couple on the Run Andrew and Sue O'Brien have become known around the world as the Couple on the Run and in 2010 went back to where it all began to complete their 50th marathon together in Chicago. They both practice what they preach in that they train regularly together and travel the world competing in marathons together. By no means do they claim to be super athletes and in fact come from very different backgrounds to prove that the principles behind Partnerunning are to the benefit of all walks of life, in all parts of their life, and not just for the athletically inclined. Practicing what they preach, in 2008 the pair accomplished eight marathons, in eight weeks, across eight different countries and this is where their insights truly came to realization.
