  To take Arne Haase as a role model: Germany's oldest marathon runner is still doing 20 kilometers twice a week at the age of 90. And it doesn't have to be that sporty. But wouldn't the Haase model be a nice vision of you in your old days, being "trapped" in the body of a 45-year-old?For millions of people, regular exercise is part of their lives. But almost all of us run the wrong way. To stay mobile from now until old age, we can make up our minds for a fundamental change. E.g. we mostly, unconsciously run as if we were training for a competition. From the age of 40, our strength and joints start to deteriorate.So what can we change in order to enjoy it forever? Change our running attitude, running mindfully, reduce our biological age: Food for thought from philosophy, psychology and coaching leads to a lifestyle that keeps you strong and healthy forever. One reading session and you're off and running!"Living in the long Run" is neither a motivational guide nor a training companion: just read it, put it down and start a new life! The inspiring narrative running coach invites you to take things radically slowly, but to take the first small step towards almost infinity. Because endurance matters.Running properly starts in your mind!In order to still be strong at the age of 90, author Dr. Patrick Krause tears down the performance patterns from our sporting past as well as our modern society; running (or any other fitness sport) should ultimately glide into the flow beyond all logic of increase - our bones will be grateful!How does that kind of "stress-reduced running" work? More like a meditation to go with the flow - and that's also how the book is written. Because running properly starts in your mind! This means eliminating opponents such as some fellow runners and potential tempo tyrans like watches and apps, which focus on competition and the logic of improvement. It's about consciously taking every mental and athletic step.
