On January 1st 2015 ultra-distance race-walker, Richard McChesney announced that his goal for the year was to break four national long-distance race-walking records ranging from 100 miles to the greatest distance walked within a 48 hour period. This is the personal account of his training and racing during 2015 in his quest to break those records. It is a story that incorporates the drama of races ranging from 100 miles around a hilly street circuit, three days around a dusty track and a trail race from Birmingham to London along the Grand Union Canal plus much more. Richard considers himself an ordinary everyday type of guy with a normal job, a family, and a passion to push himself to the limit. After taking up long-distance race-walking in 2012 Richard had completed three races of 100 miles or longer before setting his ambitious goals for 2015. Did he achieve those goals? All is revealed in his book WALK – Going The Distance! Some quotes from the book:

I got the book for my college history class. Cute book about the author's m
