Running Off The Map: In Search of Sanity - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Sometimes life falls apart and your heart breaks. But how can grief lead to growth and endings to beginnings?

After an avalanche of loss, Christopher Spriggs found himself devastated, sleeping in a friend’s shed with ten pence in his bank account. What began as a running journey throughout the British Isles, running through the night, storms, valleys, fens and forests, up mountains and along coastlines, became more than a quest to get mentally sober. Running between one winter and the next, often alone, became a recalibration with nature and waking up to a new story.

Running Off The Map is a conversation on the run, exploring vital themes for those going through personal change and loss: the strange gift of grief; the power of “in between times”; solitude, silence and wonder; making peace with the past and daring to begin again. A story woven with wild camping, old maps and a relentless search for understanding. It is a compassionate and informed reflection on recovery - about how it can feel and what can help. Ultimately, this is an invitation to enjoy deeper contentment with life wherever you place your feet.
