It's inevitable that all runners
who have been pounding the pavement for a very long time will eventually
slow down. Having run every day since November 30, 1978, Scott Ludwig
certainly falls into this category. Considering that he can no longer
run a single mile in the pace he ran 26 of them when he set his first
marathon best many years ago, Ludwig finds he is ready to accept the
reality of slowing down with age.
Now that he has entered the
ranks of the "grizzled veterans," he is ready to offer runners all the
wisdom and insight he gained from his many years--and miles--on the
roads and trails. A "do as I say, not as I do" runner, Ludwig has
compiled his advice for runners who find they may not run quite as fast
as they used to in Running Out of Gas, a humorous take on aging gracefully.
Relating
his own personal running anecdotes, Ludwig prepares runners for what's
to come, while sharing a few laughs along the way. Runners of all ages
and mileage will enjoy Scott Ludwig's Running Out of Gas.
