Publisher's Synopsis
RUN LIKE HELL is an emotional and lively account, told with Matt Beardshall's customary frankness, humour and a remarkable eye for detail. Matt draws the reader through wet peat bogs and ancient Yorkshire myths, all the way to the dizzy commercial heights of the New York marathon. However, Fate deals his wife a huge blow that impacts on Matt, his running and everything around him. It reveals life itself to be an ultra-marathon. The story is one of hope, determination, motivation and endurance, and the climax is uplifting. RUN LIKE HELL proves that no matter how fast we are we can never outpace our destinies.
