Dare to Dream cover

Dare to Dream is the inspiring memoir of Mike Sheridan, a UK and world record-breaker in long-distance running with a unique approach to the marathon. For Mike, age is just a number, and anything is possible for the older athlete.

This is the complete story of Mike's illustrious career. He candidly shares his own experiences with the reader-all of his ups and downs, from a childhood spent in the endurance running hotbed of Kenya and an off-putting experience with cross-country running in England to becoming one of the most decorated masters of marathon running. He was the first UK man over 70 to run a marathon in under three hours, and he also shares here his training methods for older runners.

Mike's story of perseverance and success is one that is sure to inspire runners of all ages.
