Your Pace or Mine? 10th Anniversary Edition
Summersdale Publishers (Verlag)
978-1-83799-879-1 (ISBN)
The 10th anniversary of the classic, best-selling running book, Your Pace or Mine?, from the co-author of Running Made Easy, with forewords by running legend Kathrine Switzer and Vassos Alexander
Lisa Jackson is a surprising cheerleader for the joys of running. Formerly a committed fitness-phobe, she became a marathon runner at 31, and ran her first 56-mile ultramarathon aged 41. And unlike many runners, Lisa's not afraid to finish last - in fact, she's done so in 20 of the 90-plus marathons she's completed so far.
But this isn't just Lisa's story, it's also that of the extraordinary people she's met along the way - tutu-clad fun-runners, octogenarians, 250-mile ultrarunners - whose tales of loss and laughter are sure to inspire you just as much as they've inspired her.
This book is for anyone who longs to experience the sense of connection and achievement that running has to offer, whether you're a nervous novice or a seasoned marathoner dreaming of doing an ultra. An account of the triumph of tenacity over a lack of talent, Your Pace or Mine? is proof that running really isn't about the time you do, but the time you have!
Lisa Jackson is a hypnotherapist, running writer and Runner's World columnist, and the author of the best-selling books Your Pace or Mine? and Running Made Easy. She is also the co-author of two travel memoirs - Travel Seekness and Travel Agents - with her husband Graham Williams. Lisa is also Women's Running's hypnotherapy expert, and her work has been published in The Guardian, The Independent, The Times, Psychologies, Red, Prima, Top Santé, Healthy, Cosmopolitan and Mumsnet, among others. Originally from South Africa, Lisa is based in Worthing, UK, and is a veteran of over 100 marathons and two 56-mile ultramarathons - but often comes last! Lisa has presented talks at numerous events including The National Running Show and RunFestRun, and is frequently interviewed on running podcasts. She was one of 40 people featured in The Sunday Times's Alternative Rich List aka The Enriched List, as someone whose life has been "rich in experience, rich in spirit, rich in life". She was nominated in the 2020 Women of the Year Awards, and in the 2018 Women's Running Awards in the "Influencer of the Year" category. Lisa is an Ambassador for the multi-award-winning fitnesswear brand Flanci Activewear.
