An inspirational collection of the world's most beautiful scenic
runs, selected by the editors of cult independent running magazine
Like the Wind. Trail running is as simple as it sounds: just put
one foot in front of the other, somewhere unpaved and outdoors. The
opportunities it presents are endless, with a wide variety of
routes that stretch over mountains, forests and deserts, in hot
climates and frigid ones, through some of the most wild and
beautiful places on Earth. Targeted at both novice and experienced
runners, this book presents the finest trail-running locations
around the world. From the heights of the Alps to the snowy
expanses of the Arctic to the jungles of Latin America and the
outback Down Under, each destination is brought to life by a
different trail runner, showcasing exactly what makes each location
so spectacular, as well as providing practical information to keep
you moving on the ground. Compiled by the editors of Like the Wind,
the first independent running magazine, each run offers an
unparalleled experience, while the foreword was written by renowned
American ultramarathon runner Dean Karnazes. As trail-running
events assume the popularity and buzz of music festivals - tens of
thousands of people run in some of the world's toughest endurance
races - this book offers a passport to exotic places and
experiences, on and off the trail, at a time when getting off-grid
and alone with yourself has never been more important. The Trails *
