About BAREFOOT SOUL: RUNNER'S HANDBOOK
The “Barefoot Soul” is a running dichotomy.The book gives a step-by-step outline for beginner runners on how to start from zero; and will also provide a fresh perspective for the experienced, competitive runners on techniques mostly heard of as running myths.The author, Csaba Lucas, is able to bring his 30-years of experience as a coach, to deliver his easily accessible wisdom he gained from his 40-year love affair with running.It all started one day in the 1980s…The grueling Eastern European Olympic athletic development program broke Csaba's mental capacity to sustain a never-ending, highly competitive run. He grew to hate running as a young athlete, but he set out to find another way to sustain the mentally torturous runs; he went barefoot.Barefoot running was the catalyst for Csaba to begin his quest on how to regain his love of running. His methods of discovery included education, experimentation, anthropology, and first-hand ethnographic research, living and studying the ancient running traditions of many cultures amongst tribes in Africa, and South and North America.Eventually, Csaba managed to fit the puzzle pieces together and defined, in this book, the parameters of the original type of running people evolved to participate in: persistence running.On this journey, Csaba transformed himself from an injured, high-performance athlete into someone who loves running, with a passion. He became an avid ultra-distance runner and began sharing his wisdom. Csaba has coached numerous competitive athletes and recreational weekend warriors to fall (or re-fall) in love with running. ‘Barefoot Soul: Runner’s Handbook’, is the ultimate running guide, for any runner, no matter the footwear they choose. This book delivers a myriad of useful information about the physical and psychological mechanics of the runners’ tool: the entire human body. From novice to experienced runner, this book speaks to the runners’ soul.
