Welcome to our new series of live online events in which you get to interact and put questions to some of the best sports writers and running authors around. Theses live sessions will take place virtually, on Zoom, and tickets cost £6 per event. So grab yourself a glass a wine, or a cup of tea, find a comfy spot on the sofa, and log in for a fascinating evening/afternoon/morning chat.

Access to all events is free to Patreon subscribers (sign up at patron.com/adharanandfinn) and paid Substack subscribers (adharanand.substack.com). Subscribers will be emailed a link 24 hours before the event.

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. He is the author of two books. 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.
