But running is not just a science—it is an art. It is an expression of the human spirit, a celebration of movement, and a connection to the world around us. It is a canvas upon which we paint our goals, our fears, and our triumphs.

Ballyhoo! The Roughhousers, Con Artists, and Wildmen Who Invented Professional Wrestling is a history of professional wrestling’s formative period in the U.S., from roughly 1874 to 1941, and the contested interplay of wrestlers and promoters who built the “sport” as we know it.
