“Marathons are no longer enough. Pain is to be relished, not avoided. Hallucinations are normal.” Adharanand Finn’s takes a journey, in The Rise of the Ultra Runners, to discover why anyone would want to take part in one of the world’s most brutal and challenging sports. An experienced marathon runner, Finn explores the psychological and social drivers that are leading more and more runners to swap tarmac for trail, and 26.3 miles for 30-, 50- or 100-mile races. In the book Adharanand Finn pushes himself, journeying from the deserts of Oman to the snow-capped peaks of the Rockies, and on to his ultimate goal – the 105-mile Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc. Along the way he encounters the sport’s most colourful characters and shares firsthand experience of the sports soaring highs and crushing lows. This is the perfect book for anyone who is thinking of taking up ultra-running, or for anyone who wants to read about the boundaries of human endeavour.
