Within the pages of this book, Dimitris Chefalis reveals twenty-one + one examples and journeys of individuals related to running, exploring how our running journey and life journey can become a little more beautiful, positive, and interesting.

A book that aims to "train" us for a more beautiful and fulfilling life. With a saying as a vehicle each time, Dimitris Chefalis presents a series of athletes and coaches. Through his perspective, he highlights how running, in addition to being a physical exercise, is also a multifaceted activity, an endless organization of the self, a rhythm of life.

The grimaces of Zatopek, the smile of Gebrselassie, the humility of El Guerrouj create a play of identity. It doesn't matter whether they achieved their dreams, Dimitris whispers in each of the twenty-one + one stories of the book. What matters is what you become while pursuing them. Giannis Ptakos, Author - Marathon Runner.

Every champion has a story behind them. All those you will read about have managed to do something more. Just like many who live next to us. Each story reminds everyone why running gives life. It’s not just about how they managed to make their dreams a reality, but how they managed themselves to achieve what they dreamed of.

Dimitris Chefalis knows very well what running means and how it can be a guide in everyone's life. Because every step moves us forward and running teaches us, in the best way, how to progress in life. Lefteris Plakidas, Author - Journalist - Marathon Runner.
