About the Book



"In her first book, popular runner blogger Amanda Brooks lays out the path to finding greater fulfillment in running for those who consider themselves "middle of the pack runners" -- they're not trying to win Boston (or even qualify for Boston); they just want to get strong and stay injury-free so they can continue to enjoy running. Run to the Finish is not your typical running book. While it is filled with useful strategic training advice throughout, at its core, it is about embracing your place in the middle of the pack with humor and learning to love the run you've got without comparing yourself to other runners. Mixing practical advice like understanding the discomfort vs. pain, the mental side of running, and movements to treat the most common injuries with more playful elements such as "Favorite hilarious marathon signs" and "Weird Thoughts We all Have at the Start Line," Brooks is the down-to-earth, inspiring guide for everyone who wants to be happier with their run"--



Book Synopsis



Inspiration and practical tips for runners who prioritize enjoyment over pace and embrace their place as an "average" runner

In her first book, popular runner blogger Amanda Brooks lays out the path to finding greater fulfillment in running for those who consider themselves "middle of the pack runners" -- they're not trying to win Boston (or even qualify for Boston); they just want to get strong and stay injury-free so they can continue to enjoy running.

Run to the Finish is not your typical running book. While it is filled with useful strategic training advice throughout, at its core, it is about embracing your place in the middle of the pack with humor and learning to love the run you've got without comparing yourself to other runners. Mixing practical advice like understanding the discomfort vs. pain, the mental side of running, and movements to treat the most common injuries with more playful elements such as "Favorite hilarious marathon signs" and "Weird Thoughts We all Have at the Start Line," Brooks is the down-to-earth, inspiring guide for everyone who wants to be happier with their run.



Review Quotes




"Refreshing and practical, Run to the Finish is equal parts wise training advice on every imaginable topic and a call to be grateful for and to celebrate the best and worst of our runs."--Mina Samuels, author of Run Like a Girl 365 Days a Year

Thank you Amanda for this fully loaded resourceful book of everything every person who runs should have. Whether you are figuring out how to start, been running for a few weeks, months or years, whatever your distance or speed is, Amanda has you covered, she is the running Wikipedia! I worked in the running industry for 10years with many elite type runners, so my exposure was a little warped. I so wish I had this book back then. There is so much more to the run than the clock. Amanda is so relatable and does a phenomenal job in laying out her years of research to provide tips, advice, training, strength, recovery, finding your love for the run and everything in between. You read this book feeling like she totally gets you, it is engaging, fun & lighthearted, she leaves you empowered. You will not find an elitist mentality here. She cheering you on no matter if you are in the front, middle are back of the pack. *my husbands name shows
