Can We Run With You, Grandfather?

In his previous book, Running Hot & Cold, Doug described his journey from couch potato in late middle age to running long-distance races across the Sahara Desert and the polar ice-cap of Greenland. Now approaching 70 years of age, Doug is edging towards his ultimate dream of running at least a half marathon on each of Earth's seven continents.

In cartea sa anterioara, Running Hot & Cold, Doug a descris calatoria sa de la cartoful de la canapea la sfarsitul varstei medii pana la curse pe distante lungi de-a lungul desertului Sahara si a calotei polare din Groenlanda. Acum, la varsta de 70 de ani, Doug se indreapta spre visul sau suprem de a alerga cel putin un semimaraton pe fiecare dintre cele sapte continente ale Pamantului.
