Ultrarunner Jen Scotney has achieved podium finishes in some of the UKs toughest races and now has her sights firmly set on the Pennine Way. In Running Through the Dark, Jen talks about her ambitions, not just to run the 268-mile Pennine Way but to take the record as the fastest woman to do so. But that didnt happen. Nothing went according to plan. The Jen the world knew was a successful lawyer and running coach all photoshoots and finish-line smiles but the truth was much darker. The real Jen Scotney, the one she hid from everybody, suffered with chronic fatigue, debilitating injuries, tragedy, grief and at times had a will so beaten down by setbacks that there just didnt seem any point in going on.But she did go on. Running Through the Dark is Jens account of her ultra-journey. Playing out on the moors of the Pennines, the fells of the Lake District and the mountains of Wales and Scotland, this is much more than a running book, it is a story about resilience, about never giving up, and about battling through the night and always believing that there will be a new dawn.
