Starting in February 2019 she began writing about her daily training, her nutrition, and her workout recoveries—how she learned from training mistakes, struggles, disappointments, and triumphs, all the while intertwining her life’s pearls of wisdom and understanding of running as an amateur athlete. Targeting the 2019 New York City Marathon, her training became a three-year journey to finally run the marathon in 2021.

Celebrity X (more famous than Oprah) departs Rome on a private jet bound for the Lake City Marathon. Race director Peter McDonald arrives at the Expo for an interview with TV reporter Christine Ferrara, new in town. Peter and Christine find love almost immediately, but when will she learn the dark secret that clouds his life? Thus begins the fascinating 72-hour countdown to the Lake City Marathon, a race beset by problems: Will Peter lose his sponsor and job? Will hot weather threaten the health of runners? Can he keep the identity of Celebrity X secret? And for Christine: Why is Nani the supermodel clinging to Peter s side? The race up front pits fast Kenyans against twin brothers from Minnesota. Among the women, the sudden loss of the world record holder opens the door for a flirty Irishwoman and an unheralded podiatrist, who has not raced since injuries canceled her college career. Back in the pack, Nani raises money for charity, a New York Times reporter chases Celebrity X, and once-married color commentators bicker their way through the telecast.

If you give a mom a marathon, she'll hit a wall. It happens to all marathoners, not just mothers. Still a new runner when that first happened in 2007, Michelle has now run more than 140 additional 26.2-mile races. But for Michelle, those races mean much more than a collection of medals and a spreadsheet of race times. All those races and training times have helped her become a better, more confident person, friend and − most importantly − mother. Come along with Michelle as she explains how running races in Australia, Iceland, and even the deck of a cruise ship has helped fuel her on her family's journey.

Dieses etwas andere Tagebuch gibt einen Einblick in das Leben eines Laufenthusiasten, bei dem sich das Laufen nicht nur darauf beschränkt, tagein tagaus einen Fuß vor den anderen zu setzen. Der Leser erlebt das komplette Jahr 2017 aus der Sicht eines im positiven Sinne "Laufverrückten", der nicht nur im Oktober seinen ersten Marathon (wenn möglich unter 2:30 Stunden) laufen möchte, sondern mitunter mehr trainiert als viele Weltklasse-Läufer, und dies neben einem Vollzeitjob. Zudem erhält man ungeschönte Einblicke in die Gedankenwelt des überaus nachdenklichen "Vereinsmeiers", der sich mehrere Stunden pro Woche um seine Athletinnen und Athleten und viele andere Dinge des Vereinslebens kümmert, und der in nahezu jeder Lebenssituation eine Parallele zu seiner liebsten Sportart findet. Seien Sie mit dabei, wenn der Autor über das Traillaufen philosophiert und kurzzeitig über eine Teilnahme an der Traillauf-WM nachdenkt. Erleben Sie die Höhen und Tiefen im alltäglichen Lauftraining, von herausragenden Intervalleinheiten bis zu desaströs langsamen Dauerläufen. Begleiten Sie den Autor bei kleinen Volksläufen, regionalen Sportfesten und nationalen Meisterschaften (Cross, Bahn, Straße). Dabei erhalten Sie Einblicke in die Maschinerie des Leistungssports (Nationalmannschaft, US-Universitäten und deutsche Läufer) Fühlen Sie mit bei Niederlagen und Triumphen, bei denen Sie der Autor mit tiefen Einblicken in seine Gefühlswelt teilhaben lässt. Doch auch die Philosophie des Laufens und die Trainingslehre kommen nicht zu kurz, wobei hier ganz neue Einblicke in Läuferweisheiten und ungeschriebenen Laufgesetze gewährt werden. Da wird über den Trend Trailrunning (gemeinsam mit Humboldt), das Thema Ernährung, über Lügenpresse und Fake-News, aber auch über alltägliche Läuferprobleme wie Achillessehnenbeschwerden nachgedacht. Dabei werden neben wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen auch rein subjektive Erfahrungen des Autors ausführlich dargestellt. Die dabei nicht immer ganz konventionellen Herangehensweisen des Autors sollen Denkanstöße für den interessierten Leser bringen, diesen aber auch hin und wieder zum Schmunzeln bringen. Dazu tragen vor allem die vielen Geschichten aus dem Vereinsleben bei, angefangen vom "Kaiserschmarrnexzess", den Soldatenaufmärschen, Atombomben und "Pussy-Pausen" im Oster-Trainingslager bis hin zu Wunderschuhen, Zaubertränken und vereinsinternen, nicht immer ganz ernst gemeinten, Wortgefechten. Es kommen viele andere Läufer zu Wort, die der Autor im Jahr 2017 auf diversen Wettkämpfen oder im Training getroffen hat, vom Spitzenläufer bis zum blutigen Laufanfänger ist alles mit dabei. Begleiten Sie ihn von Januar bis Dezember auf seinen Trainingsrunden, die ihn bei eisiger Kälte und tropischer Hitze durch Wälder, Berge und Großstädte über Schnee, Sand, Wiesen, Matsch, Tartanbahnen und Asphalt führen. Fast jedes Wochenende lernt er die Laufszene von einer anderen Seite kennen und reist dabei nicht nur durch das idyllische Alpenvorland, sondern kommt in ganz Deutschland herum. Dabei wird klar, dass für den Autor das Laufen viel mehr als nur eine Sportart ist, es ist für ihn eine Art Lebensphilosophie, die sich wie ein roter Faden durch dieses für den Autor außergewöhnliche Läuferjahr zieht. Nicht selten schwankt der Autor zwischen Wahnsinn, übertriebenem Ehrgeiz, beißenden Selbstzweifeln, überzogenen Erwartungen, maßloser Selbstüberschätzung und Rationalismus.
