Buckle Up!: The five year journey to the end of a 100-mile foot race.
One hundred miles. That’s all.
The MudCrew Arc of Attrition is a foot race that gets under your skin. At least it did for serial Did-Not-Finisher, Richard Meston. One hundred miles of Cornish Coast Path from Coverack on the south coast, past the Lizard, Penzance, Land's End, Cape Cornwall and onto the north coast at Pendeen, on to St Ives, Godrevy and Portreath finishing in Porthtowan. Mud, rain, wind, more mud, hills, muddy hills, slippery hills, a bit of road, and brutal isolated, muddy terrain. And mines. Lots of Cornish mines! Whether you’re planning on running the Arc of Attrition, are starting a journey in the world of running or just can’t get to sleep at night, this book is for you.
Marvel at the secrets behind what it takes to create a poor-to-mediocre ultra-distance athlete. Find out in unnecessary detail the time it took to get from one place to another in Cornwall. And learn about the rocks that make up some of the car parks on the route.
And don’t if you find the book tough going and fail to get to the end, just try again next year.
