From Parkrun To London Maratho

The experience of running the London Marathon is all kinds of wonderful, topped off with lots of delicious amazing and served up with a side order of downright incredible. This book follows my journey to the marathon as I pound the streets, dress up in a rhino costume to visit eight different parkruns, and try to think of lots of interesting ways to raise money for Save The Rhino International. When I decided to run the London Marathon I wanted to immerse myself in the experience as much as possible. Part of that immersion was to read every account I could find from people who had been involved themselves. I found several existing books, which I review in these pages, but I wanted more and realised that other people might feel the same. This is my attempt to give you a little of what I craved at that time. This book describes in detail the experience of running the marathon from the point of view of quite a slow plodder. It will give you a real flavour of what it feels like to take part and a taste of the joy of it all. All proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the charity, Save The Rhino.
