  ‘Every time I speak to someone and hear about their experiences, it leaves me with a sense of running’s incredible power to help people overcome pretty much anything.’
   
  Each day, millions of people around the world put on their trainers and try to deal with their personal demons and life challenges by going for a run. And, increasingly, they do it knowing that they are not alone: a growing and often virtual community is right there running alongside them. We are all, in some sense, running for our lives.
   
  Rachel Ann Cullen’s first book, Running for My Life, described her own marathon journey through depression, bipolar disorder and body dysmorphia, and her revelatory discovery that running could transform her physical and mental wellbeing. After hearing from people who had read about her experiences, Rachel wanted to tell some stories of other runners from all around the world – ordinary people living with mental health struggles, grief, cancer and other unavoidable life events who have relied on running to get them through their worst days and to keep going. Running for Our Lives shares moving accounts of hope and resilience; it demonstrates the power of running to help us all overcome adversity, and is a lesson for us all in learning not only how to survive life’s challenges, but to thrive.

  Tennis is a dynamic sport that requires more than just physical skill. While athleticism, technique, and fitness are essential, having a solid understanding of tactics can often be the deciding factor in a match. Tennis tactics involve strategies, decision-making, and adjusting your game plan according to the flow of the match, the opponent’s strengths and weaknesses, and even the conditions of the court. This chapter introduces the concept of tennis tactics, emphasizing their importance for players of all levels, from beginners to professionals. 
  At its core, tennis is a game of patience and precision. In order to outsmart your opponent, you must be able to analyze the situation on the court and make the best possible decisions. Tactics come into play when choosing the right shot, deciding when to attack or defend, and how to manage the mental aspects of the game. Understanding the fundamentals of tennis tactics is key to building a strong foundation for your play, regardless of your style. 
  One of the first steps in developing effective tactics is recognizing that no single strategy works for every situation. A good player is versatile and adaptable, able to modify their approach depending on the opponent, the surface, and the match circumstances. For example, on a fast hard court, you might choose to play aggressively with deep, powerful shots, while on a slower clay court, a more patient, defensive style might be needed to outlast your opponent. Being able to read the game and adjust accordingly is an essential part of any winning strategy.
