Beschreibung
Philosopher and prominent ultra-marathoner Sabrina Little here offers a novel view of what it means to run well, and how cultivating key personal virtues can make us strong, faster, and happier runners. Combining her extensive personal experience as a runner and coach, with her deep knowledge of virtue ethics, The Examined Run accessibly shows how virtues like perseverance, emotional control, and compassion can be just as important in training and competition as any other regime, and should appeal to any intellectually curious runner or athlete.
