Faster! Louder! by Boff Whalley
The true story of a teenage punk from Yorkshire, seemingly existing on a diet of cider, parties and loud music, rose to the top in the toughest sports.
Boff Whalley was born in Lancashire, where he worked as a postman and supermarket shelf-stacker before starting a band with friends in the Thatcher era. After 25 years of recording and touring with Chumbawamba (co-writing their hit song Tubthumping), Boff started to write. He has written several touring plays and large-scale musicals, working as composer and writer for several theatre companies and at Tate Britain, Manchester Museum, and most recently with Welsh National Opera. He has published two previous books (Footnote, an autobiography and Run Wild, a love-letter to the sport of fell running), and is currently working on a theatre show These Hills Are Ours, about running, land ownership and escape. He lives in Yorkshire and has been running on the fells for over thirty years, many of them as a team-mate and friend of Gary Devine.
