Synopsis

"Curling Heroes" offers a compelling exploration of how this centuries-old sport has evolved from its Scottish origins into a sophisticated Olympic discipline, combining physical precision with strategic mastery.

 
The book delves deep into the fascinating world of championship curling, examining how elite teams from Canada, Scotland, Sweden, and Switzerland have shaped the modern game through their distinct approaches and innovations. Through extensive research and interviews with players, coaches, and sports psychologists, the text reveals the intricate balance between technical skill and team dynamics that defines success at the highest levels.

 
The book's three-part structure systematically unravels the complexities of competitive curling, beginning with the technical foundations and physics of the sport, progressing through team psychology and communication, and culminating in an analysis of strategic evolution. Readers gain unique insights into how championship teams integrate traditional knowledge with modern sports science, including detailed case studies that demonstrate successful team dynamics and tactical innovations.

 
What sets this book apart is its comprehensive approach to analyzing curling excellence, combining practical game analysis with broader applications in team management and decision-making. The narrative bridges the gap between technical expertise and accessible storytelling, making complex strategic concepts understandable for both seasoned curlers and newcomers alike.

 
By examining regional variations in strategy and team development, the book illuminates how different cultural approaches have contributed to curling's evolution, while providing practical tools and exercises that readers can implement in their own practice or adapt for other collaborative environments. This makes it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of sports strategy, team dynamics, and competitive excellence.

    Out for Air

    Infused with movement, surprise and play, Out for Air presents a unique vision of the built environment, celebrating places where 'the bridges are endless / beyond the cantilever / of reality'. Expansive in scope but intricate in form, a masterclass in precision engineering. Todd rewires T. S. Eliot's Waste Land in his strange, compelling descriptions of the modern city: melting asphalt; a U-turning taxi; a diner swallowed by a sinkhole. In this disorientating landscape the skateboarder-poet is genius loci, the spirit of the place.
    From Manhattan's 'silky streets' and the Pacific Coast Highway to inner-city London and his native Cumbria, together these poems record a life lived on the move, in motion, on the cusp of things.
    'I'm dazzled by this wonderful debut...The language itself crunches, glides, grinds. A radically different way of experiencing the built and natural environment and an endlessly engaging, witty, serious and astute new voice.' - Luke Kennard
    'Out for Air is an inventive and alluring debut...With shades of Kleinzahler and Eliot, these poems explore angles and movement, friendship and distance, in a voice that is genuinely original, graceful and often strange.' - Martha Sprackland
    'Through his words a whole world and potential opens up, a distillation of experience that feels universal and intimate.' - Nick Jensen
    'Out for Air creates a world of familiarity gone strange, a world of signs of the human in motion, where the living in place becomes its constant study. It makes a hard-to-pin-down language which is all its own, and which mirrors its subjects' international scope, its playful, sometimes arch, worldview, and which announces a wholly original voice.' - Will Burns

    Keri draws on her experience as a mountain runner and running guide for Girls on Hills to hand pick the best and most interesting runs across Great Britain, starting with some first-rate parkruns and short trail runs, including the Loch Coruisk loop and the Hampstead Heath circuit, working up to tough and demanding routes and races, such as the Welsh 3000s and the Bob Graham Round. Use this book to tick challenges off, or as a tool to plan where to run next – wherever you are in the UK there will be a run nearby.
    Each run has handy details to help with planning your adventure – start and finish points, distance and ascent, navigational difficulty, public transport, parking, route profile and overview map – along with inspirational text and stunning photography to give you a flavour of what the run is like. Other options nearby are included, along with suggestions for other similar challenges throughout Great Britain.
