Of all the sports he pursues, why did he choose the marathon, a sport fraught with struggle and trials? In this first memoir, which candidly shares his literary and life experiences, centered around the marathon, we encounter the passion and tenacity of Haruki Murakami, who, even in his old age, runs a

been published.\u003cbr\u003e In this book, Haruki Murakami, celebrating his 30th anniversary since his debut, has expressed his literary views, outlook on life, and inner reflections through running, using honest vocabulary and surprising insight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Today, his works have been translated into about 40 languages ​​and are read by readers around the world. Haruki Murakami, who is mentioned as a strong candidate for the Nobel Prize every year, is also famous as a marathon runner.\u003cbr\u003e Why did he choose running over all the other sports? And how did running influence his novels? Haruki Murakami candidly shares his story in this book.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e● Completed the full marathon course 25 times. Why does Haruki run?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In April 1978, while watching a baseball game at Meiji Jingu Stadium in Tokyo, Haruki Murakami decided, \"That's right, I'll try writing a novel.\" The moment a batter hit the ball accurately, he said, \"That's right, I'll try writing a novel.\"\u003cbr\u003e He was twenty-nine years old, and had been running a jazz club for four years after graduating from Waseda University's Department of Theater and Film.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Less than a year after that moment of revelation, he wrote the novel “Listen to the Wind’s Song” and won the Gunzo New Writer’s Award, making his literary debut and embarking on the path of a writer.\u003cbr\u003e Haruki quit his successful jazz club and began his life as a full-time writer.\u003cbr\u003e He began running in earnest in the fall of 1982, shortly after completing his novel, “A Sheep Chase.”\u003cbr\u003e Over the next 26 years, he continued to run full marathons, 100km ultramarathons, and triathlons around the world. \u003cbr\u003eHe always had running shoes in his travel bag.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Why did Haruki Murakami become a \"running novelist\"? Haruki Murakami, who believes that \"writing novels is physical labor,\" chose running to build stamina, focus, and endurance.\u003cbr\u003e For Haruki, who enjoyed running and swimming since childhood, which are easier to do alone than exercising with other people, running, or rather the marathon, may have been a natural choice.\u003cbr\u003e Haruki Murakami confesses in this book that if he had not run, the tone of the novel he wrote might have been very different.\u003cbr\u003e What does 'running' mean to Haruki Murakami, the 'running novelist'?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e● Highly recommended for literature students, 4 million marathon runners, and the youth of this generation!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the preface to this book, Haruki Murakami said: \u003cbr\u003e“This is a book about running, not a book about health.\u003cbr\u003e “I don’t want to be here and say things like, ‘Let’s all run together every day and get healthy.’”\u003cbr\u003e However, anyone who reads this book will feel like running while reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Haruki runs marathons and triathlons, among many other sports, and the adjective 'extremely intense' is a perfect fit for him.\u003cbr\u003e What does he gain from running that grueling 42.195 kilometers? What is the correlation between running and his literature? Reading the book with these questions in mind, it becomes clear what we can learn from Haruki Murakami. \u003cbr\u003eIn this first memoir, in which he candidly shares his life and literature, centered around the marathon, literature students will learn about his beliefs about literature, and runners will learn about Haruki's passion for running a full marathon course once a year even at the ripe old age of 60.\u003cbr\u003e And young people with big aspirations will be able to realize what kind of mindset and practical guidelines are needed to achieve their life goals. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 13, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover book binding method guide\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280 pages | 367g | 142*200*20mm \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43891810205738,"sku":"135103","price":22.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/9ae5f9fb7c714faf7400a3033c3f7c71.jpg?v=1765344158","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/135103","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
