Fantastic to talk to barefoot runner Anna McNuff - she ran 2,352 miles (90 marathons!) across Britain in 2019. I do have a confession to make in that I rarely enjoy reading books about someone running a long way or conquering some kind of hard as nails running challenge (I'd much rather be out on a run myself!) but I make an exception for Anna's books as they're so well written, engaging and hilarious I can't put them down.

This Barefoot Britain run in particular is also much more about one person completing a challenge and so much about inspiring others along the way including the people she ran with and the Brownies and Girl Guides she gave talks to. I love her zest for life, made up words, beautiful descriptions and honesty about situations and feelings that come with a huge challenge like this. I'm a massive fan, and I hope you enjoy her book as much as I did - link below!
