Whether you’re a younger runner trying to PR or a masters athlete looking to maintain and improve your running, everyone will find wisdom in Jonathan’s book, which very easily could have been titled, 'How to Live a Meaningful Life' or 'How to Fall in Love with Running All Over Again.'" - Greg White "Beverly wrote two books in 2017 and they’re both essential volumes on any runner’s bookshelf.

I wanted to know: What is the secret to that long-burning passion? Are they genetically lucky? Born optimistic? Or could I find core habits, mindsets, and practices they employ to keep the fire burning? I revere those whose passion, like a bed of mature coals, sustains heat after years and years of experience, successes and failures, breakthroughs and setbacks.
