One moment can change the course of a life forever. For Reg Willick, that moment came with a devastating phone call-an event that would alter his path, ignite a relentless drive, and lead him toward a mission bigger than himself.

In this raw and powerful memoir, Reg shares his journey through unimaginable loss, the surprising salvation he found in running, and the profound impact of paying it forward. From the heartbreak of a tragic accident that shook him to his core to the triumph of completing the Great World Race-seven marathons on seven continents in seven days-this is a story of grit, determination, and unwavering resolve. But this book is more than just races run and finish lines crossed; it's also about the people and places that shaped his life, the deep influence of his wife, Janice, and the comfort and joy found in the companionship of dogs. It's about finding purpose after retirement, standing up to injustice, navigating the flaws of bureaucracy, life's inequalities, and a global crisis-and discovering healing through action and compassion.

Told with honesty, vulnerability, and humour, Not a Runner is a testament to the power of determination, the importance of doing what's right-no matter the cost-and how even the smallest acts of kindness can create ripples of change. Some wounds never heal. But through running, resilience, and reaching out to others, Reg Willick found a way to keep moving forward.
