Peter Francis saw his teenage years transformed by a miracle drug called running. His elation was
soon followed by despair, in the form of 12-years of repetitive injuries. Spurred on by personal
injustice, Peter pursued 3-science degrees, multiple coaching and consultancy roles before making a
breakthrough in the form of what had seemed like an unlikely comeback. In 2016 aged 29-years, for
the first time in his life, he ran for almost 3-years uninterrupted. This period coincided with running
multiple personal bests (33:46 10-km; 78:00 half marathon). In this book, he uses a combination of
his own story and his learnings spanning some 18-years of trial and error to provide a holistic
explanation for why runners get injured and how best to avoid it. His personal story is as captivating
as the information it imparts. Whether you are a disgruntled beginner or an Olympic hopeful, you
cannot help but become more consistent having read this book.
