Critics Review

The running is literal as well as metaphorical…it’s a heartbreaking story * THE METRO *Running is a chaotic race through O’Sullivan’s life, but this does little to dethrone him as the people’s champion - it simply adds further to his legend. * PRESS ASSOCIATION *When he starts talking about snooker and his rivals, he is fascinating. Yet it wasn’t snooker that ended up saving from the booze and drugs - it was distance running. * THE DAILY TELEGRAPH *At snooker, O’Sullivan is easily the best in the world. At running, he is club class…His frank memoir, which reads like a transcript from the psychiatrist’s coach, explains that running - and the running community - gave him a sense of acceptance and achievement. * THE SUNDAY TIMES *Like a lot of shy people, he can look arrogant and aloof when he is performing, while underneath there’s turmoil. * DAILY MAIL *
