"Samurai Running: Your Path to Mental Joy and Physical Benefits"

Embark on a transformative journey through the exhilarating world of endurance running with "Samurai Running." This isn't your average runner's guide; it's a holistic exploration of the sport's profound physical and mental benefits.

Drawing from over 30 years of experience living and running in Japan, author Scott Andrew Brown takes you from the humble beginnings of barely being able to run 200 meters to achieving remarkable PRs, including:

5K: 16:41
10K: 35:35
Half Marathon: 1:18:03
Marathon: 2:45:11

What makes "Samurai Running" unique is its holistic approach. It doesn't just focus on running techniques; it delves into the philosophical underpinnings of the sport. Discover how ancient wisdom from the samurai, Chinese and Greek traditions can guide modern runners through life's challenges.

Balancing the demands of family life with the pursuit of personal fitness is a common struggle. This book offers insights on achieving equilibrium and embracing an honest approach to ambition that can enrich anyone's life, not just runners.
