Mara Yamauchi is a two-time Olympian, Commonwealth Games bronze
medalist, and the UK's second-fastest female marathon runner ever
with a personal best of 2:23:12. But there is much more to Mara
than just running fast. This book of 42.195 insights-the number of
kilometers in a marathon-distills the wealth of wisdom and
experience Mara has gained as a world-class athlete. From planning
training, optimizing nutrition, and preparing effectively for
racing to coping with disappointments and struggles with mental
illness, Mara shares everything she has learned-good and bad-as one
of the world's top marathoners. Still, she does not spoon-feed her
readers with training plans; instead, she encourages them to think
critically to understand how to improve and set their own goals.
This book also takes the reader into the revered world of distance
running in Japan, one of the world's marathon superpowers. It has
something for everyone, from beginner runners to competitive
athletes and those aspiring to the very top. Mara's insights are
also applicable beyond running and are meant for anyone who wants
to realize a dream or achieve a lifetime goal in whatever field is
special to them.
