Running in the Shadows of the Gods

A sports memoir

‘Running in theShadows of the Gods’ recounts how one runner dreamt of following the greats ofBritish athletics. It also explores how the 1980s defined the way we seeathletics today.

In his book, PaulLarkins recounts what it was like to watch Seb Coe and Steve Ovett on TV,racing in far-flung stadiums on their way to world records before finallycompeting against them himself. Occasionally he even beat them. And as you’lldiscover, the 1980s were much more than the creation of running gods. Today’samazing super shoes owe their roots to the decade as do the incredible racesand athletes we see on TV today.
