'There is a lot of connection between running and dancing' - author questions with Michael Crawley

Michael Crawley is a runner, writer and social anthropologist based in Durham. He has been a runner for over 20 years, and ran a 2:20 marathon in 2018. His first book, Out of Thin Air: Running Wisdom and Magic from Above the Clouds in Ethiopia, documents his time living and training alongside runners in Ethiopia, while his latest book, To the Limit: The Meaning of Endurance from Mexico to the Himalayas, takes a similarly immersive approach, featuring overnight bike rides, ultra marathons and runs into sweltering canyons in Mexico. Here he faces questions from a live audience over Zoom.
