His most recent, Run Strong, Stay Hungry, hit close to home as I found myself reexamining my own relationship to competitive running after 20 years of participating in the sport. Whether you’re a younger runner trying to PR or a masters athlete looking to maintain and improve your running, everyone will find wisdom in Jonathan’s book, which very easily could have been titled, 'How to Live a Meaningful Life' or 'How to Fall in Love with Running All Over Again.'" - Greg White "Beverly wrote two books in 2017 and they’re both essential volumes on any runner’s bookshelf. 'And it is enough.'” - Kristine Morris, Forward Reviews "In a crowded world of books telling us how much to run and how fast, RUN STRONG, STAY HUNGRY stands apart as a lovely distillation of lessons learned from runners who have built happy and impressive running lives over decades. Lifetime competitors accept that today, though not perfect, may be 'as good as it gets,' writes Beverly. ".a book that’s as much about life as about running. Running is about you, your path, and your lifetime of running.” ― Bill Rodgers " Run Strong, Stay Hungry is for runners who get that running is not about one race or rival. "Like going on a long run with multiple generations of running's wisest and most-experienced" -Pete Magill From training methods to mental attitudes, these specific keys can help you too enjoy a lifelong, healthy running career as well as boost your enjoyment of running and your racing performance whatever your age.
In Run Strong, Stay Hungry I share 9 keys from these veteran racers that keep them training strong, hungering for competition, and drawing the same enjoyment from the sport as they did when they started. I discovered that these runners all share specific perspectives and patterns that allow them to adapt to changing life circumstances, accept declining abilities, and rebound from setbacks. They range from well-known elites like Joan Benoit Samuelson, Bill Rodgers and Deena Kastor, to less-gifted but no less dedicated local competitors. To answer these question, I interviewed more than 50 runners who started in their youth and are still chasing it into their masters years. I wanted to know: What is the secret to that long-burning passion? Are they genetically lucky? Born optimistic? Or could I find core habits, mindsets, and practices they employ to keep the fire burning? I revere those whose passion, like a bed of mature coals, sustains heat after years and years of experience, successes and failures, breakthroughs and setbacks.
By implementing the strategies suggested in this book, teachers of twice-exceptional gifted students can ensure these students do not just survive in the classroom, but thrive.I've long marveled at those runners who never seem to lose the fire as they move through life's decades.
The book will guide a collaborative team step-by-step through the process of identifying students' needs, selecting modifications and accommodations, and developing a comprehensive plan to meet the diverse needs of twice-exceptional children. This comprehensive text provides an overview of who these students are, how teachers can tap into their strengths and weaknesses, and what educational strategies should be implemented to help these students succeed in school and beyond. By offering a thorough discussion of twice-exceptional students based on research into how gifted students with disabilities learn, the author helps teachers and education professionals develop a broad understanding of the complex issues associated with gifted students who have disabilities. Gifted students with disabilities, also referred to as twice-exceptional children, need the strategies in Twice-Exceptional Gifted Understanding, Teaching, and Counseling Gifted Students in order to find success in the regular classroom.
