Author: Alex Hutchinson
Endure is a book about the limits of human performance, what defines them, and how it’s sometimes possible to change them. Hutchinson traces the history of attempts to understand the science of endurance, from early theories of the human body as a “machine” to the modern understanding of how the brain calls the shots. Built around the tale of Eluid Kipchoge’s quest to run a sub-two-hour marathon, Endure is the definitive take on the science of human limits.
