Is this book for me?
Started Couch25K but given up because it was too hard?
Too embarressed to run in public?
Afraid people will laugh and stare?
Worried about keeling over?
Then this is the book for you without a shadow of a doubt.
Although this book can help both male or females struggling to come to terms with the sport of running it does focus specifically on the barriers that many overweight women in particular face when heading out the door for a run. It may not promise you weightloss but it does promise to make you a happier and healthier person in your current body.

What are other people saying about this book
I wish I'd found this sooner! I finally worked some of this out myself but if I had read this first I'm pretty sure it would have been easier. Humorous and practical it's a must read for a beginner runner.
Inspirational, irreverent and funny book but gets the five main points across well. All that remains is to get running!
Julie is right, there is no magic wand or super secret you just gotta get out there and do it.
