Sinopsis

With young kids and an increasingly unhealthy lifestyle, Mark Atkinson knew it was time for a lifestyle change.

An absolute beginner with a string of failed gym memberships and team sports attempts, running was something he started on a whim. However, a handful of tricky starting runs soon progressed into a 10k race, which then snowballed into a marathon.

Progressing cautiously on a reluctant and unexpected journey to 100 Marathons (and beyond), Mark learned the hard way from years of getting it wrong. Unlikely to break any records or become a national figure for the standards he sets, he nonetheless has enhanced his life and fitness, taking his long-suffering family along with him. In Run Like Duck, he writes about his unsteady progress while knocking the stuffing out of running pomposity.

This uplifting mix of helpful tips and witty, relatable anecdotes is fuelled with enough drive to get any reader running, with Mark's inspiring story accompanying you along your journey to the great outdoors.

‘A hilarious tale of one man’s obsession, packed with advice for runners from beginners to aspiring marathon competitors.’ -- Sean Conway

‘Witty, funny and informative. Great for someone starting out in running!’ -- Dr Margot Wells
