RUN WILD
Book ID/图书代码: 12290012B53701
English Summary/英文概要: Boff Whalley just likes running - the places it takes him, the moments of exhilaration and snapshots of natural beauty that he adds to his mental album. This is not a man who signs up to big city marathons and pounds the pavements. With his down to earth voice and a great sense of humour, Boff writes about how running brings a real world of discovery and adventure, from reaching the top of a mountain with the sun at your back and moon in front creating two shadows to running up Mt Fuji on a break from work. For Boff, running is about freedom, experiencing of the world, your place in it and generally just enjoying yourself. Running is a way to get back to that simplest of relationships - the one between our feet and the earth.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: Boff Whalley很喜欢跑步--他跑步去的地方、那兴高采烈的时刻和自然美景的快照都加入了他的精神纪念里。这并不是说一个人报名参加了大城市的马拉松比赛并在人行道上狂奔。Boff以其真实的个人经历和很好的幽默感,描写了怎样通过跑步带来对周围世界的探索和发现,当工作闲暇之时,攀爬富士山顶,有落日余晖洒在你的背上,又有面前的月光洒下而造成的两个影子。对于Boff来说,跑步就是自由,是体验世界和你生活的地方,也是一种自我享受。跑步是一种感受最简单关系的方法—那种你脚和大地相连的关系。(LNL)
Awards/获奖情况:“一本精彩,积极向上的书:鼓舞人心、博学、令人愉快、感人、可读性很强且对于这个城市化、胆怯的时代是令人难以置信的及时。那些在运动中及周围景物中已经忘了怎样寻找快乐和冒险的跑步者们应该迫切的去读一下《尽情奔跑》”-- Richard Askwith《云中之足》的作者。 “这是一本想象力很强的书。天马行空的想象和活泼的文笔,充满了叛逆、生气盎然、激烈的、善良的、有趣的和令人激动的东西。就想跑步一样,这本书对身心非常有益。”-- Jay Griffiths《野生动物:基本的旅程》的作者。
About the Author/作者介绍: Boff Whalley在1981年做了两件事。他成立了一个乐队并参加了人生第一次马拉松比赛。在接下来的五年里,Chumbawamba乐队录了好几张专辑并进行了世界巡演。跑步呢?它花了五年,直到他跑到山上赢得了比赛的胜利。之后他就迷上了跑步。虽说在乐队里生活和工作,但越野跑步才是他真正的热情。 Boff Whalley did two things in 1981. He started a band and did his first marathon. In the following five years the band, Chumbawamba, recorded several albums and toured the world. The running? It took five years until he ran a hill race to make a success of it. And he was hooked. Being in a band is his life and work, but off-road running is his passion.
