    Vassos Alexander - Radio 2 Breakfast show presenter and sports journalist, shares the highs and lows of falling in love with running - from the first stumbling (and sweaty) steps on the running machine - through to the finely honed marathon runner he is today. Funny, inspiring, honest - the perfect read for anyone with a pair of well-worn trainers by the door (or thinking of buying some . . .)

    This is a celebration of running - and what lots of us think about when we run. Part escape, part self-discovery, part therapy, part fitness.
