In It for the Long Run by Damian Hall

In It for the Long Run is ultrarunner Damian Halls story of his Pennine Way record attempt in July 2020. With dry wit and humour, Hall tells of his nine-year preparation for his attempt, and of the run itself. He also gives us an autobiographical insight into the deranged world of midlife crisis ultramarathon running and record attempts.

Damian Hall is a record-breaking ultrarunner who has represented Great Britain and competed in some of the world’s toughest races, including the Ultra-Trail du Mont Blanc. His attempt to break into the top ten at the UTMB, probably the most competitive 100-mile race in the world, was made into an award-winning film – Underdog. In addition to his 2020 Pennine Way record, he has set several other British records/Fastest Known Times (FKTs), including for the Paddy Buckley Round in winter, the South West Coast Path, the Cape Wrath Trail (with Beth Pascall) and the South Wales Traverse. He is a UK Athletics running coach and a widely published journalist who contributes regularly to magazines such as Women’s Running, Runner’s World and Trail Running. He has written several books, including the official National Trail guide to the Pennine Way, Walking in the Cotswolds and A Year on the Run.
