The philosopher Francesc Torralba has been running every day for the past 25 years. He has participated in long-distance running, marathons, and fun runs, and here he shares with the reader his most personal experiences and feelings: how running gives him time to be alone and meditate, how it connects him to his own body, recharges his batteries, and ties him to nature and the environment. Throughout the book, Torrabla explores the importance of this practice for his daily activities and his life attitude, given that "running is a perfect metaphor of life."
