About this item

Every runner's story is part of a great tradition of running stories. Running Throughout Time tells the best and most important of them. From Atalanta, the heroic woman runner of ancient Greece - when goddesses advised on race tactics - to the new legends of Billy Mills, Joan Benoit Samuelson, and Allison Roe (the modern Atalanta) , this book brings the greatest runners back to life. It's the perfect runner's bedside storybook.
