Book Description
Ultra-marathons are not the preserve of the fitness elite - with hard work and solid training ordinary people can take part. At first 100k and 5000m ascent/descent may seem intimidating but, as experience grows, this turns in to an achievable adventure in the Alps. Starting with the flagship UTMB 'Courmayeur Champex Chamonix' (CCC) race this book traces a journey across Europe ending back in Chamonix with the 'Sur les Traces des Ducs de Savoie' (TDS)'. The races on this journey include UTMR, Ut4M, Transylvania 50 and 80, South de France 100, Arctic Ultra, Lakeland 100 and Ecotrail events in Oslo and Paris. Each event is covered in detail so you know what to expect should you decide to enter.Written from the back half of the pack, the steps to success are unpicked and laid out (including how to deal with a 'Did Not Finish') showing what is possible with planning, training, self-belief and a touch of luck.Come with me on a journey in to the night.

Book Description
This book is not about breaking records and winning medals. It is about the joys and experience of running for fun at home and in different countries. It illustrates how it is possible to run big city marathons over the weekend and on a limited budget and still meet the locals and take in some of the sights. It is also about the fun in running local events in all weathers. I have commented on my personal training program and how it has changed over the years. The book is part biographical and I have not hesitated to give my thoughts and reflections on issues that include: war, national traits, diet, lifestyle and much else. May I apologize in advance if any of the views expressed in this book offends the reader- challenging perhaps but not intended to cause offence. It is hoped the book inspires others to join the marathon trail and see where it takes them.

Book Description
After running across France and Germany, Russell Secker takes on the toughest physical and mental challenge of his life - running across the whole of Europe in the 2009 edition of the Trans Europe Footrace. The race format is simple yet implausibly difficult - an average of 45 miles a day on foot for 64 consecutive days. Starting from Bari in the south of Italy, 67 ultrarunners from around the world set off to test themselves on a grueling 2-month journey of self-discovery. The race passes through Italy, Austria, Germany, Sweden and Finland before reaching the northernmost land in Europe - North Cape, Norway - 400 miles inside the Arctic Circle. Running Across Countries gives first-hand insight into the daunting challenge of becoming a transcontinental runner, one of the toughest and most unforgiving tests of the human body and spirit.

Book Description
The Strange Death of Europe is the internationally bestselling account of a continent and a culture caught in the act of suicide, now updated with new material taking in developments since it was first published to huge acclaim. These include rapid changes in the dynamics of global politics, world leadership and terror attacks across Europe. Douglas Murray travels across Europe to examine first-hand how mass immigration, cultivated self-distrust and delusion have contributed to a continent in the grips of its own demise. From the shores of Lampedusa to migrant camps in Greece, from Cologne to London, he looks critically at the factors that have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their alteration as a society. Murray's "tremendous and shattering" book (The Times) addresses the disappointing failures of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel's U-turn on migration, the lack of repatriation and the Western fixation on guilt, uncovering the malaise at the very heart of the European culture. His conclusion is bleak, but the predictions not irrevocable. As Murray argues, this may be our last chance to change the outcome, before it's too late.
