A collection of poems and stories inspired by wild spaces and endurance running. Shifting the narrative from the tired trope centering around the white man conquering a gritty race or mountain, Run Wild & Be explores the female experience embracing freedom and self love through her time spent running long outside. Drawing inspiration from a 4000 mile run across the United States, this book weaves readers through tiny mountain towns, into the desert, and sprawling metropolises, while noting gender inequities, power imbalances, changing goals, and morphing identities.
