Just Finish! by Sean Kachmarski
from Running Book Reviews with Alan and Liz
Send us Fan MailJust Finish is author Sean Kachmarski’s story of going from watching The Great North Run on TV every year and telling his wife “I’m going to run that next year”, to actually running it! Sean played football while he was in school but never described himself as athletic. By the time he decided to start running he had 2 kids, a full time job and was overweight, so he wasn’t even sure if he could do it. It all started with a health scare in 2004, and finally deciding to download a couch to 5k training app a decade later in 2014. Just Finish is about Sean’s running journey, also a tribute to all the people he met and who have helped him along the way, and a lesson in choosing goals that motivate you. The book is divided into 48 chapters which Sean refers to as “miles” as he has found that writing this book was a lot like his running journey, full of hurdles but also people who believed in him.Sean is a Canadian living in the UK with his wife and two kids. He considers himself ordinary (just like everyone else) and this is what drives him to want to help other believe in themselves and their ability to set goals and achieve them. In addition to his book, Sean is also very active on social media including Instagram and YouTube.If you are interested in getting a copy of the book, you can get it at the following website: https://payhip.com/b/8Ik2You can also find it on AmazonCanada: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B084BVCDD2/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_GXT9W5CBTP97WCF7SKYZUSA: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084BVCDD2/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_9MM5X336ZQE68QT31N14 UK: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084BVCDD2/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_9MM5X336ZQE68QT31N14If you would like to follow Sean, he is on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@SeanSpeaksYou can also help him with his YouTube Channel by supporting him here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/SeanSpeaks Support the showAny feedback or suggestions on this review or any of our other podcast episodes would be greatly welcomed.
