About the Book

Ein Marathonläufer von Weltklasse, der an allen sechs Abbott World Marathon Majors teilgenommen hat! Das Buch basiert auf den Erfahrungen von Charles Moore, der zwischen 2016 und 2023 mehr als 20 Marathonläufe absolviert hat. Es ist sowohl ein Bericht über seinen Weg zum Ultramarathonläufer als auch eine ehrliche und sehr persönliche Auseinandersetzung mit der Frage, wie Rasse und Kultur zusammenhängen. Anhand von internationalen Läufen in Großstädten in Asien, Europa und den Vereinigten Staaten, einschließlich seiner Heimatstadt Detroit, untersucht der Autor den Mangel an Vielfalt im Marathonlauf. Dabei lässt er die Leserinnen und Leser an seiner intensiven Reise teilhaben, auf der er in nur wenigen Jahren mehr als 20 Marathonläufe absolvierte, darunter die prestigeträchtigen Abbott World Marathon Majors - sechs Marathonläufe in Berlin, Boston, Chicago, London, New York und Tokio. Er blickt hinter die Kulissen des Trainings für jedes Rennen und eröffnet uns in seinen unvergesslichen Memoiren über den Langstreckenlauf eine ganz neue Dimension. Mit dem Venn-Diagramm von Schwarzsein und Langstreckenlauf hat sich Moore als einer der wenigen auseinandergesetzt. So ist "LAUFEN IM EINKLANG: EINE HOMMAGE AN DIE LAUFKULTUR" ein unverzichtbares Zeugnis für die Ausdauer und die Kraft der schwarzen Marathonläufer und für die Art und Weise, wie ein Mann sein Leben und den Laufsport verändert hat, indem er immer wieder auf die Beine kam und auf höchstem Niveau antrat.

About the Author :
Charles Moore is an art historian, writer, and curator based in New York and the author of The Black Market: A Guide to Art Collecting and The Brilliance of the Color Black Through the Eyes of Art Collectors. Moore received his master's degree from Harvard University and currently is a third-year doctoral student at Columbia University Teachers College, researching the life and career of abstract painter Ed Clark.

Review :
For all the stereotypes suggesting that black men have natural abilities as athletes, this memoir takes on the myth that they don't run. It tells the witty, vivid, and intriguing story of Charles Moore's discovery of his passion for running marathons on his extraordinary path at what some think of as "midlife," further clarifying his sense of purpose. In the process, he rediscovers and fulfills longstanding dreams as he maps his way through multiple marathons and many miles. - Dr. Riché Richardson, author of Black Masculinity and the U.S. South: From Uncle Tom to Gangsta and Emancipation's Daughters: Reimagining Black Femininity and the National Body The candid style that Moore uses to recount his own experiences is refreshing, as is his commitment to sharing the history behind marathoning. He chronicles the background of running as an "elitist" sport, covering notables who broke through the barriers-like Marilyn Bevans, the first Black woman to win a United States marathon... - BookLife by Publishers Weekly After competing in his first marathon at age 40, an award-motivated New York City transplant goes on to finish all six of the World Marathon Majors in this memoir. - Kirkus Reviews
