Welcome to Doug
Richards' Running Website
2018 was a great year for me! Apart
from reaching a milestone 70th birthday in May, I also achieved a
life-long ambition of running at least a half marathon on all seven
continents when I completed the Antarctica half marathon in March. It was a
trip I will never forget!
Further good news came later in the
year when my second book ‘Can We Run With You, Grandfather?’ was published.
Following the success of my first book, ‘Running Hot & Cold’, that won the
Silver Award at the 2016 Running Awards in London, the publishers, Pitch
Publishing, were eager for me to continue writing about my ongoing running
adventures, and the new book includes full details of the amazing Antarctica
experience. Both titles are available in paperback and ebook formats and can
be found on Amazon and in all good bookstores.
2019 promises to be a great year as
well, with further adventures planned on foreign soil and a great new
charity to support. More details are on the ‘Latest
News’ page.
