'A must-read for anyone looking to improve performance and add richer meaning to the sport, activity and art of running.' Dean Karnazes, ultra-marathoner and New York Times bestselling author Discover how mindfulness can enhance your running and make you a happier, more fulfilled person. By applying mental fitness training to your running regime, you tap into a powerful mind-body connection that not only optimizes sporting performance, but also boosts happiness both on and off the running trails. Mindful Running brings together scientific research, expert analysis, and elite athlete contributions to reveal how relating to your mind, body, and surroundings in a new way can help you run longer and faster, as well as offer a boost to your overall mental, emotional, and physical health.

Not only does this have the potential to translate into better running, it can also play a role in training you to endure life's challenges with greater ease and find joy in all things big and small. Mindful Running is a total body and mind fitness regime.

Review :
A must-read for anyone looking to improve performance and add richer meaning to the sport, activity and art of running. In this age of distraction, we would all benefit from being more present more often. Mackenzie L. Havey shows how and why to achieve this goal in your running, and how that practice can benefit you in your non-running hours. Mindful running has changed my life for the better – when I’m feeling overwhelmed, stressed or anxious, pulling on my trainers is my form of therapy. Mindful Running is the bridge to using your body, mind and surroundings to get the most out of your running… From the very first page I was hooked. I loved this book. Running Book of the Year 2017 shortlist A great read for anyone who, like us, struggles to fit running in around work and life, by explaining the benefits of taking the time out and running more mindfully, which has a great, positive impact on all areas of your life. Best for: Everyone who likes to run, whatever their level Such a well written, well-researched and useful book, regardless of your running experience or ability.
