In</i> The Happy Runner <i>Megan and David Roche share the secrets to reformulating your relationship not just with running, but with life."</i> <br><b>--Amelia Boone, </b>Spartan Racing World Champion <p/><i>"In all my years as a professional triathlete I never had a coach who put my happiness first.

Find your happiness in </i>The Happy Runner<i>!"</i> <br><b>--Charlotte Paul, </b> Professional Triathlete, 2-time Ironman Champion <p/><i>"The</i> Happy Runner <i>mind-set has really helped me to stop fixating on what I want to become and instead appreciate what I have. If we don't enjoy the process, strive in the difficulties, and embrace the mundane, we will be chasing a never-ending finish line, which can only end in defeat. Regardless of your profession or athleticism, this book will remind you that we are enough; we are awesome; and anything that we do on top of that is just extra icing on top of an already delicious cake."</i> <br><b>--Keely Henninger, </b>2018 Winner of the Lake Sonoma 50 Miler and Chuckanut 50K <p/><i>"Megan and David capture the essence of good coaching in </i>The Happy Runner <i>by challenging runners to zoom out and take the long view of their running. From this vantage point, motivation, goals and process all fall into place.

Their enthusiasm for sharing this proven route to more satisfying running is evident on every page, and their expertise shines through their athletes' success stories."</i> <br><b>--Liza Howard, </b>Four-Time Winner of USATF National Championships <p/><i>"</i>The Happy Runner <i>is the best running book you'll ever read because it's about so much more than just running: love, death, and above all, happiness."</i> <br><b>--Clare Gallagher, </b>Winner of the 2016 Leadville 100 Miler <p/><i>"This book has kept me in the most contented, thoughtful, and kind company through endless hours and situations.
