The Race: The inside track on the ruthless world of elite athletics SHORTLISTED FOR THE IRISH BOOK AWARDS 2025 - Tapa dura
Sinopsis
The Race offers an exhilarating, behind-the-scenes look at the cut-throat world of elite athletics. With vivid recall, David Gillick, one of Ireland’s most celebrated 400m sprinters, describes the sacrifices, triumphs and devastating setbacks that define a life spent chasing greatness. From the punishing grind of training camps to the mental anguish of injuries and the darker side of athletics, this memoir captures the intensity of a career defined by fractions of a second.
As an Irish athlete competing against the odds, Gillick recalls the unique challenges of representing a small nation: limited resources, enormous expectations and the constant push to prove you belong among the world’s best. But The Race is more than a story of sport. It’s an exploration of human resilience and the fight to find balance in a life consumed by the pursuit of perfection. It’s about enduring heartbreak, overcoming burnout and discovering who you are when the race is over.

Acerca del autor
David Gillick is one of Ireland’s most successful athletes. He helped push the boundaries of sprinting by winning two European Championships over 400m while consistently competing with some of the fastest one-lap athletes in the world, resulting in Irish records and a 6th place finish in the World Championships. After retiring from athletics, David competed in MasterChef, wrote two cookbooks and now works in sports reporting.
Cathal Dennehy is a freelance sports journalist and a two-time winner of the award for Irish broadsheet sports writer of the year. He specialises in writing on athletics and Olympic sports.
