When Anthony L. Copeland-Parker and his partner Catherine were in
their fifties, they learned that he needed a heart-valve
replacement, and she had early-onset Alzheimer's. Their past
experience as endurance athletes lead them to react accordingly-to
sell their home, retire from their jobs, and become nomads, running
marathons and half-marathons all over the world. Anthony L.
Copeland-Parker's Running All Over the World began as a blog
written during his travels, a nonfiction account of his five-plus
years of flying, running, walking, sailing, and sightseeing with
his partner Catherine-from Atlanta to Antarctica and back again.
Part travelogue and part medical memoir, Anthony's writing
transports readers to exotic places like Madagascar, Bhutan, and
the Great Wall of China while providing a look at the day-to-day
realities of living out of a suitcase. Running All Over the World
is an offbeat story about life and love, recounting the trials and
tribulations of an ex-pilot with a passion for vistas and logistics
and a woman so tough she walks a half-marathon in the Australian
Outback mere weeks after breaking her ankle. During their years as
nomads, Anthony and Catherine tested the physical and mental limits
of their bodies and finished every race hand in hand.
