This is an interesting little book. Dolores Cross' autobiography is an entertaining read and draws you into her family and working life. (It does become a bit twee in places, so maybe her editor should have been a bit firmer at times.)
She started running at the age of 50 and achieved some very creditable marathon performances. This is not a detailed training manual, but maybe a book to give people taking up running later in life a bit of inspiration.
