Why I Run: Featuring award winning short story Dispute Resolution

by Peter Gregoire

When Peter Gregoire was six-years-old, he discovered the joys of running for the first time. It has been the one constant in his life ever since. To runners the world over, running is more than just a sport. Running is a need, a deep-seated passion, a part of their life which defines them, an activity which enables them to stretch to the outer limits of their capability and a time for deep meditation and true exhilaration. Although very much a personal journey, Why I Run serves as a tribute to an activity that will resonate with all those who wear the label ‘runner’ with pride.

Dispute Resolution is a prize winning short story about the relationship between a father and son and the beautiful unity which sport can bring.
