I Tried To Run Really Far: The physical and emotional battle of running New Zealand’s 3000-kilometre Te Araroa Trail.

This journey was a real feat of endurance, it’s a very compelling read and great on what it’s actually like to run that far, good description of the importance of friendship and motivation and all in all a great read which, even as a non runner, I thoroughly enjoyed.

Interesting read well written and engaging.But the actual quality of the book in terms of binding is very poor! I’m the first person to read the book but already pages are coming loose and falling out!!

A fabulous read about setting a goal then training and mentally preparing for it followed by a day by day review of how the journey unfolded. A good insight into mind over matter, true friends and the journey that unfolded during a run through a beautiful country. Well worth a read, gritty and heartfelt.

Really enjoyed this book. Was on holiday in New Zealand a few years ago so was nice to read about some of the places we had visited

Very inspirational

Read the book. Tis good

Insane, inspirational and well written running book.An easy read for all ages. Awesome, kwirky illustrations. A definate read.

Couldn’t put it down from the moment I picked it up! A very well written and engaging book from the start, you feel like you’re part the journey with Lewis.I found reading this book inspiring yet emotional throughout, and it gives the reader a real insight into exploring the mental strength it takes to take on such epic adventure!Get yourself a copy - you won’t regret it!
