Coast to coast the hard way May 18, 2008
P. R. Clark (Ashover, Derbyshire)
To a non runner this book is excellent. How do you describe the hundreds of thousands of footsteps it takes in an interesting and informative way? Matt Beardshalls's book shows you how. It is a collection of the serious mind set you must have, along with the anecdotes and people stories generated along the way. Single minded - yes. Achieving goals -yes. Conquering the pain and the devils - yes. Read it, you'll discover what it really takes.
North Sea - here we come..? Brilliaaaaant! May 7, 2008
M. Weller
Captures the atmosphere of the Coast to Coast - presented in a humorous way, detailing both the highs, lows and `up and downs` of a long-distance supported challenge and the organisational skills required for such an undertaking. Good read. Recommended.
enjoyable, inspiring and fun April 20, 2008

Compact, informative about all aspects of the challenge, planning, training, route, motivation etc. A great little book and easy to read, but if you are not careful it can make you want to get out of the armchair and do something - oh dear! If you are a runner you can understand where they are coming from and what they go through. If you are not you can enjoy it anyway - but you may be inspired to do something afterwards!

This is a great read if you have ever done something similar you immediately have an affinity with the guys. If you are looking for the next challenge this certainly gives you some ideas or if you have been thinking about putting on a pair of running shoes this is a great inspiration, I really enjoyed it and I highly recommend it.

Having planned entirely on my own to run the Wainwright course for charity without even knowing about this book, I was happy to come across it on an ultra running website. Thanks to Amazon's next-day gratification, I began reading and found not only an entertaining read, but a wealth of experience specifically related to my own plans. When I got to the part about training, I Googled Mad Dog and immediately found his training site. Sent an email, and within minutes I was chatting not only with Mad Dog, but the author as well. I'm now training with Mad Dog to help me achieve my objective and Matt has also been a great source of help. What an amazing world we live in. I have found the book extremely helpful as a runner, but highly recommend it to anyone as a great read about real people doing something extraordinary. Just buy it now and enjoy. Sorry, you won't find my copy in the used section.
