The 2024 Cross Country season is over! 

This is the seventh day of easy running in week 2.

Warm-up well,

60-70 minutes of moderate running ,

cool-down well,

Our holiday pick of the day is The Lonely Breed, by Ron Clarke with Norm Harris 

The Lonely Breed, by Ron Clarke and Norm Harris

One of my favorite books of all times, The Lonely Breed is a compilation of stories about some of Ron Clarke’s most admired.

The story that makes me cry each and every time that I read it is about Jim Hogan, the only Irishman to win the European marathon

championships. I met Jim about 2006 and enjoyed several wonderful gatherings with Jim, courtesy of David Bedford and Ian Stewart.

Jim passed away in 2015. The story is priceless.

To get this book, please check out: the Lonely Breed, by Ron Clarke

Other book suggestions: Self Made Olympian, by Ron Daws, , A Clean Pair of Heels by Murray Halberg, , Pre! by Tom Jordan.
