A journey Into The Fabled World Of Japanese Distance Running
Six Japanese runners finished the 2018 Tokyo Marathon in under 2hr 9min. That might not mean much to you but to put it into context, in the history of British running only five men have run under that mark, and only eight Americans have done it. That strength in depth is a result of Japan being one of the most running-obsessed nations on Earth, especially long-distance running. In this fascinating book (The Way of the Runner), journalist Adharanand Finn explores the unique running culture in Japan... Thousands of professional runners compete for corporate teams in some of the most competitive races in the world. Adharanand spent six months immersed in this unique running culture to discover what it might teach us about the sport and about Japan. Published in 2015, The Way Of The Runner offers us insights on what did happen three years later. (03/07/2018) Views: 2,137 ⚡AMPRecommended Books
