Synopsis
Craig had it all figured out. The sofa. The beer. The PlayStation. A perfectly comfortable life going absolutely nowhere. Then his heart had other ideas. After suffering a stroke in front of his children, Craig was given a stark choice, change everything, or face losing it all. So he did what any sensible person would do in that situation. He took up running. Which would have been a great idea, had he not collapsed after twelve minutes. What followed is the kind of story that makes you laugh, reach for a tissue, and then immediately lace up your trainers. From a breathless twelve-minute shuffle around the block, Craig went on to complete over thirty marathons, including all six of the legendary World Marathon Majors. London. Boston. Tokyo. Berlin. Chicago. New York. The cities changed. The medals piled up. And somewhere along the way, impossible dreams became a reality. This is not a book about being fast. Craig will be the first to tell you he isn't. It's about showing up. About the strangers at mile twenty who became lifelong friends. About crying at finish lines in six different countries and not being even slightly embarrassed about it. The doctors told him it would never happen. That was all Craig needed to hear.

À propos de l'auteur
Craig Sharp is a photographer, running club founder, and Six Star Abbott World Marathon Majors finisher.Growing up in Leicestershire, he was an ordinary kid who never imagined that endurance running would one day shape so much of his life. One seemingly ordinary weekday set him on a path that would challenge him physically, mentally and emotionally in ways he could never have predicted. What began as a simple decision became a journey of personal transformation, leading him from struggling to run for twelve minutes to completing some of the world's most iconic marathons and inspiring others to believe that lasting change is possible.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. At thirty-six years old, twenty-one stone, and barely able to walk up a flight of stairs, Craig Sharp collapsed in a hospital waiting room. The diagnosis that followed read like a warning: morbidly obese, pre-diabetic, asthmatic, and now the survivor of a stroke. Then, a year later, half-watching a marathon on television with a beer in hand, something shifted. He decided he was going to run one.His first attempt lasted twelve minutes before he ended up in an ambulance.Twelve Minutes is the true story of what happened next: a decade of early mornings, ruined trainers, two more health scares, a marriage breakdown, a custody battle, and a doctor who told him flatly that his chances of ever finishing a marathon were practically zero. It is also the story of Boston, Chicago, London, Berlin, New York, and Tokyo, the six races that make up the Abbott World Marathon Majors, and the friendships, found family, and second chances built one mile at a time along the way to becoming a Six Star finisher.This is not a book about being fast. It is a book about a man who was told his chances were practically zero, and who spent the next ten years proving otherwise. Honest, funny, and unflinching about the real cost of change, Twelve Minutes is for anyone who has ever looked at their own life and wondered if it is too late to start again.It is not. At 21 stone and barely able to walk up a flight of stairs, Craig Sharp collapsed in a hospital waiting room. A decade later, he is a Six Star Abbott World Marathon Majors finisher.
