Download or read book Cross Country written by Rickey Gates and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2017, professional runner Rickey Gates ran 3,700 miles across the continental United States with just a small backpack and an anthropologist's curiosity to discover the divided America in which we live. In the book Cross Country, Gates documents this epic experience from South Carolina to San Francisco, sharing first-person essays, interviews, and over 200 photographs of the ordinary and extraordinary people and places he saw along the way. While Gates delivers unparalleled insight into the extreme athletic and mental challenge of this transcontinental run, running is not the core focus of Cross Country—it is a story of the remarkable people across the United States who we would otherwise never meet. • A photographic travelogue that follows along Rickey Gates's run across the country, and the individuals who live in it • Filled with portraits, landscapes, and collages of towns and communities that most people have never seen • From South Carolina to San Francisco, the five-month-long run covers 3,700 miles of hiking trails, rivers, and roads. Gates slept in the rain, carried meager possessions on his back, ran through the night, endured mental and physical challenges, and survived on a staple of gas station hot dogs and Pop Tarts. Delivering a patchwork portrait of America, Gates's captivating story captures the spirit of our country—that grit, determination, and compassion are qualities that can unite us all. • Perfect book for runners, hikers, and lovers of the outdoors, as well as fans of travelogues, photography, and photo-journalism • A great pick for those who loved Humans of New York by Brandon Stanton, The Oregon Trail: A New American Journey by Rinker Buck, and A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail by Bill Bryson. • A unique perspective of the United States
Book Synopsis Distance and Cross Country Running (Classic Reprint) by : George Orton
Download or read book Distance and Cross Country Running (Classic Reprint) written by George Orton and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Distance and Cross Country Running America's middle distance runners and sprinters arc famous throughout the world. Her distance runners rank second only to the Englishmen, whose climate and general upbringing have made them peerless in this one branch of sport. These are the two salient points that strike one in glancing hastily down the vista of American champions from 1876 to the present day. The American sprinter and quarter-miler are the best in the world today, and they have been so ever since 1880, only four years after the first American championships were held. The half-milers have found their equals in England, though that famous American distance runner. Kilpatrick, holds the best half-mile record ever made. But in such men as Brediti, who defeated Kilpatrick in England; Workman of Oxford, Cross, Tysoe, the late world's champion, and numbers of others, our British cousins have shown an equality. In mile running, it is true we had the greatest of all distance runners (W. G. George alone excepted) in the person of Tommy Conned, who. running under New York Athletic Club colors, made the present world's amateur record of 4 minutes 15 3-5 seconds. But Conned was not American born, and thus the credit for the performance is shared with the Britishers. The best mile record ever made in America is that held by George W. Orton, at 4 minutes 21 4-5 seconds, while in England hardly a year rolls by that some new man does not beat 4 minutes 20 seconds.
