  Food should be really simple. It is the means by which we nourish our bodies, providing them with the nutrients and fuel we need in order to live, exercise and socialise. Yet, in recent years, food and nutrition have become more complicated, confusing and polarising than ever before. 
  Fuel for Thought by leading sports dietitian Renee McGregor is a practical and trustworthy guide to sports nutrition, whether you’re a world-class or real-world athlete, or just someone who wants to improve their relationship with food. Cutting through the jargon and misinformation, Renee draws on over twenty years’ experience of working with sportspeople from a range of disciplines and backgrounds to provide straightforward, accessible advice about how you can fuel your adventures. 
  The follow-up to More Fuel You, in this book Renee looks at sports nutrition through the lens of her own sporting passion – running. She urges caution over the explosion of social media nutrition and fitness experts, apps and programmes that all claim to offer bespoke dietary advice. Instead, she offers practical information based on her own personal and professional experiences, including an A–Z of foods and a section dedicated to her own tried-and-tested, budget-friendly recipe ideas which use simple, everyday ingredients. There is also guidance on how to recognise and get help with dysfunctional behaviours, from REDs to exercise dependency, and how to be informed about your hormonal health when you go in search of appropriate support.

Yes, THE IRONMAN®, “the single most difficult day in sports”– a 2.4-mile swim, 112 miles on a bike, then a 26.2-mile run, all completed in under 17 hours.

The stunning discovery is that physically, James Lawrence is unspecial in every way. The secret to his bulletproof body is his bulletproof mentality.Even those accomplishments weren’t enough for James. In 2021, he set out on another endurance endeavor, this one so difficult he wondered if he would even live.  He set out to complete a staggering 100 full-distance triathlons in 100 consecutive days. By persevering, he wanted to inspire people to do the same for whatever difficulties they are going through.How does a person develop the mental fortitude necessary to overcome incredible exhaustion, immeasurable suffering, and unfathomable pain in order to achieve impossible goals?

  United With Dad is an emotional tale of football fandom and fatherhood, detailing the agonising final two years of a man’s life while drawing on his love for and memories of Manchester United. 
   
  David Lloyd passed away from metastatic prostate cancer in a nursing home in November 2019. During his heartbreaking decline, he also lived with dementia. His affection for United was ignited by early visits to Old Trafford as a boy in the 1950s. Through the anguish of his final months, his passion for the club never completely faded, even when so many other things did. 
   
  United With Dad is written by David’s son, Simon, who reflects on his father’s life and their relationship, attempting to make sense of why, at such a bleak time, a shared love of a football club should matter so much. 
   
  It is a book that transcends club allegiances, for anyone who knows what it is to devote a large chunk of their life to watching their favourite team beside someone they love, then, one day, realise the time has come to go on doing so without them.
