I already heralded this a lot, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise:
It’s Wednesday, November 1st, and here’s a special edition of Das Z Letter to let you all know that you can pre-order my book “Runhundred” from now on.
Yes, “now” really means “immediately”. I have created a wonderful website for the pre-order, but here’s your fast lane:
Paperback Book
Physical 5.5 x 8.5 inch paperback book with 262 pages and colored photography. Signed by the author.
It took me quite some time to find the right format for my book. Possibilities are endless, but the book cover artwork suggested something slim, yet not too small. I have a large book pile on my desk and compared books of all sizes and formats over the last few weeks before I made a final decision.
Ebook
Digital file for ebook-readers such as Kindle, Apple Books (iPad, iPhone) or Kobo. Also includes a PDF-file, that works on all desktop computers.
I am especially happy with how the ebook turned out. It looks super nice. To be honest, I never cared about ebooks too much, but when I dived deeper into this format, I started finding them quite enjoyable. I particularly like that the reader can mit it his/her book by changing font size, paper color and dimensions of the text.
Shirt Bundle
The Shirt Bundle includes a signed paperback book and a t-shirt. Choose between a black and a white shirt, and between athleisure or racing textile.
Shirts? “That’s my territory!” to quote one of my favorite authors, Steven Pressfield. I knew, right from the start, that I would also offer my book in a shirt bundle. When I saw the shirt design for the first time (Thanks, Alessandro), I was absolutely stoked, and wanted to immediately launch it as a collection for my running clothing brand Willpower, haha!
Deluxe Bundle
The Deluxe Bundle is strictly limited to 50 pieces. It includes a limited cotton t-shirt (black or white) with a special 5-color print, stickers, a set of 3 postcards, a hand-numbered, A3-sized art print poster, and the paperback plus the eBook version of the book. Moreover, a personal note from the author.
Finally, I wanted to offer something super special. The Deluxe Bundle is for everyone, who really wants to dive deeply into the world of “Runhundred”. Words, visuals, apparel, and emotions. All of these items turned out absolutely wonderful. You will be delighted.
Everything else you need to know
This is a pre-order. All orders will be shipped on December 1st, 2023. That’s the official publish date of the book
The Deluxe Bundle won’t be available, once the book is published, or, if all 50 bundles are sold out. Whatever happens sooner
If you want a special dedication for your book, e.g., if it’s a gift for someone else, please let me know
If you are having trouble getting the ebook to work on your Kindle, iPhone, tablet or e-reader, please let us know. I have tested it on almost every device and know a few tipps and tricks that might help
Here’s a more detailed overview over of pre-order options
The book is written in English language
Today is also the start of the Western States lottery registration. So if you have qualified this year, don’t forget to throw in your ticket!
Everything Not Running
I reflected on the beauty of the number 100 in the context of running a lot lately (Thanks, Daniel LLE). Here’s what I came up with.
Run one hundred times, one hundred days, and one hundred more.
One hundred kilometers, one hundred miles, one hundred dreams engraved into the ground beneath your feet.
One hundred heartbeats, one hundred breaths, one hundred moments in time.
One hundred layers of doubt and fear peeled away to reveal your strength and pride.
Your hundredfold journey awaits.
Gratulation zum ersten Buch! : )
Wie gesagt warte ich auf die deutsche Ausgabe, vorausgesetzt, die kommt auch handsigniert?
Late to the party, it seems, but pre-ordered. 🥰
