Running Challenges - 100 of the best runs in England Scotland and Wales

Keri Wallace

Sinossi

Running Challenges by Keri Wallace showcases 100 of the best runs across Great Britain, from inspiring 5Ks through to epic multi-day ultras. Split into three sections – England, Scotland and Wales – and featuring a mixture of marked trails, organised races and unmarked self-navigated challenges, the runs ramp up in difficulty as you go through each section, so, whether you are a beginner or a more experienced trail, fell, mountain or ultra runner, you can find something achievable, accessible or aspirational.
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.

Conversational Italian Dialogues...

Language Mastery

YOU KNOW WHAT'S FRUSTRATING? YOU'VE BEEN STUDYING ITALIAN FOR WEEKS - THEN YOU MEET AN ACTUAL ITALIAN AND... BLANK
You know your verbs. You've memorized vocabulary lists. You can conjugate in your sleep.
Then you meet an actual Italian person and your mind goes completely empty. You stumble. You freeze. And that conversation you pictured so perfectly in your head? Yeah, it's not happening.
Sound familiar?
Here's the thing - you're not bad at Italian. The problem is how you learned it. Most courses teach you ABOUT Italian without actually teaching you to SPEAK Italian. It's like learning to swim by reading a book about water.
This game-changing audiobook by Language Mastery fixes exactly this problem.
WHAT MAKES THIS ACTUALLY WORK:
✓ 100+ real conversations recorded by native Italians - not textbook Italian, but the stuff people actually say in Rome, Milan, and Naples
✓ Two-speed audio: Listen slow when you're learning, then speed up as you get comfortable - your brain adapts naturally
✓ Story-based learning that doesn't feel like studying - you'll get so caught up in what happens next, you won't notice you're absorbing Italian
✓ Quick comprehension checks to make sure you're following along
✓ Practical vocabulary you'll actually use - real phrases for real situations
THE DIFFERENCE IN 30 DAYS:
✓ You'll stop translating in your head and just speak
✓ Native speakers won't make you repeat yourself three times
✓ Words stick because you learned them in context, not from lists
✓ You'll actually enjoy learning
No more grammar drills. No more feeling stupid when you can't remember a word. No more rehearsing conversations in your head that never happen.
Just real Italian. The kind people actually speak.
READY TO FINALLY SOUND LIKE YOURSELF IN ITALIAN? GRAB THE AUDIOBOOK NOW.

Lake of the Ozarks - My Surreal...

Anonimo

Beloved TV host Bill Geist pens a reflective memoir of his incredible summers spent in the heart of America in this New York Times bestseller.Before there was "tourism" and souvenir ashtrays became "kitsch," the Lake of the Ozarks was a Shangri-La for middle-class Midwestern families on vacation, complete with man-made beaches, Hillbilly Mini Golf, and feathered rubber tomahawks. It was there that author Bill Geist spent summers in the Sixties during his school and college years working at Arrowhead Lodge -- a small resort owned by his bombastic uncle -- in all areas of the operation, from cesspool attendant to bellhop.What may have seemed just a summer job became, upon reflection, a transformative era where a cast of eccentric, small-town characters and experiences shaped (some might suggest "slightly twisted") Bill into the man he is today. He realized it was this time in his life that had a direct influence on his sensibilities, his humor, his writing, and ultimately a career searching the world for other such untamed creatures for the Chicago Tribune, the New York Times, and CBS News.In Lake of the Ozarks, Emmy Award-winning CBS Sunday Morning correspondent Bill Geist reflects on his coming of age in the American Heartland and traces his evolution as a man and a writer. He shares laugh-out-loud anecdotes and tongue-in-cheek observations guaranteed to evoke a strong sense of nostalgia for "the good ol' days." Written with Geistian wit and warmth, Lake of the Ozarks takes readers back to a bygone era, and demonstrates how you can find inspiration in the most unexpected places.

Malcolm Teasdale

Malcolm has spent a ridiculous amount of time on planes, trains, taxis and various types of tuk tuks, all in a quest to get to places near and far around the world. 
After an honest explanation about how he became a travel addict, Malcolm describes how some iconic places and wonders of the world are reachable with a little planning. It’s basically an attempt to simplify what can be deemed as an intimidating task. You can then add them to your Bucket List. 
The rest of the stories in this book cover experiences in Europe, Asia, the Americas and the Caribbean. Not one to shy away from a challenge or two, he visits distant locations to see spectacular architecture, surrounds himself with sharks at 50 feet underwater in Palau, camps in the Mongolian wilderness and then hangs out with the nomads, finds a spiritual encounter in an iconic palace in Tibet, ventures into areas of seediness and questionable merit, and then relaxes on a spectacular beach just to get away from it all. 
In his quest to fulfill some lifetime ambitions, the added benefit is to become further educated about how the rest of the world works. 
Malcolm shares his unique and wild experiences from around the world.  
Be enlightened.
