Lisa will talk about her memoir STILL RUNNING AFTER ALL THESE TEARS: A tale of love, loss and laughter, which describes one woman's determination to survive unbearable grief - and get back into running - one step at a time.
Lisa Jackson is a hypnotherapist, running writer and Runner's World columnist, and the author of the best-selling books Your Pace or Mine? and Running Made Easy. Lisa is also Women's Running's hypnotherapy expert, and her work has been published in The Guardian, The Independent, Psychologies, Red, Prima, Top Santé, Healthy and Cosmopolitan. She is a veteran of over 100 marathons and two 56-mile ultramarathons. Lisa haspresented talks at numerous events including The National Running Show and RunFestRun.
Feeling utterly broken as she navigated bereavements, Lisa turned to an old friend that had helped her through many tough times before: running. But whereas it had previously been a source of solace, fun and companionship, before long a debilitating injury meant she lost her running mojo, too. Aiming to complete her 109th marathon, Lisa set out to rekindle her love affair with running - and to build a new life. Still Running After All These Tears is a survival manual for the broken-hearted, and for anyone struggling with major life challenges. It's a celebration of the redemptive power of running, and the life-enhancing lessons it can teach us.
Above all, it's a meditation on how to thrive in the face of trauma, what makes a good death and, most importantly, how to lead a joyous, meaningful life.
