Running like a girl - Alexandra Heminsley

Defeated by gyms and bored with yoga, Alexandra Heminsley decided to run - with high hopes of attaining the arse of an athlete, the waist of a supermodel, and the speed of a gazelle. Her first attempt did not end well. Yet, six years later, she had run five marathons in two continents. This is not just a book about running. It's about ambition (getting out of bed on a rainy Sunday morning counts), relationships (including talking to the intimidating staff in the trainer shop), and your body (your boobs DON'T have to wobble when you run). And it's also about realising that you can do more than you ever thought possible...
