In this episode we review 'Runner' by Lizzy Hawker.
Bookhounds is taking a break, so this is the last podcast episode, at least for a while. To mark this occasion, Char invites a very special guest to join her in the virtual podcast studio.... her dad, David Binns. While reviewing the book they chat about David's table tennis career, Char's upcoming loop ultras and why Evertonians are better than Liverpool FC fans ;)
About the book:

Lizzy's astonishing story uncovers the physical, mental and emotional challenges that runners go through at the edge of human endurance - inspiring us to get out of the chair and go running in the mountains.
