5.0 out of 5 stars
Informative picture of Coe in the early 80s,

This review is from: Running Free (Hardcover)
A must read for any Coe fan, or those interested in the history of the sport. An intelligent look at track in the early 80s by one of the greats; this book is about the events and the sport, not ego.

This review is from: Running Free (Hardcover)
Being a runner Sebastian Coe is one of biggest inspirations I have and therefore I read everything I can about him. When I saw the biography about him here I ordered it at once.
The book is about Sebastian Coe from the years when he was a young boy until the games in 1980. It covers the events around the 800 and 1500 metres and the days in between with great detail. This is one of the most famous come-backs of the running history ever and it's interesting to read how it happened. One thing I think the book lacked is a bit more feeling. I believe the author has tried to be too objective when he wrote about Sebastian, probably because everyone was so pleased with him at the time that he believed it would sound sugar coated, but some of the magic got lost then. This is the reason I give it a 4 star rating. One other reason is that it's too short, but there is luckily a sequel,Sebastian Coe: Coming Back
