What if running in beautiful places was paradoxically contributing to the destruction of those precious environments and causing irreversible global harm to people and animals too
In We Can't Run Away From This,ultrarunner Damian Hall examines the impact of running in our climate and ecological emergency. Packed with insights from experts,it is an enlightening read which will prompt us all to really think about our kit,food and travel,and to identify simple changes we can make to our running and wider lives. But Damian also asks if concentrating on our individual footprints (pun unintended) is really the answer.
We can't run away from this any more,and this book will give every runner ideas about how to live and exercise more sustainably.
