Running for living is an art, a philosophy, that we can reach easily when we are able to focus on what it matters and leave out the elements that could be negative or bad for our health. This book will motivate you to make this discipline part of your lifestyle while giving you the tips to take care of yourself and focus on what matters longterm. In this society, fully occupied with work, absorbed by technology, running is a space for freedom where we can make people exit the virtual world, their homes, their offices, video games and finally take action to create a healthy habbit.

I said it. I'm over 50. This is the first short book in the series, which is meant to offer subtle humor while nudging you toward improving your health through exercise. Technically, I am still a runner according to the verbal charter of the 1980s, which clearly states that once you are a runner in your youth you will remain a runner for the duration of your lifetime. I'd send you to the charter website, but there isn't one, so you'll just have to take my word for it. Even couch potatoes (who were runners in their youth) are still runners.

My running journey has led me to extreme highs, but has also plunged me, bipolar-like, into the depths of depression.
