John sets off on a marathon run of 42.2 kilometres through his native Longford, the scene of his award-winning 'The Cow Book'. As he runs across woodlands, fields and tiny roads, he tells the story of his life and contemplates Ireland's history, old and new. He also remembers other great runs he has done, from Australia to Canada, and tells the stories of some of his running heroes, such as Haile Gebrselassie. Part memoir, part essay, 'The Running Book' explores what it is to be alive and what movement can do for a person.
