About the author

Tian Shichuan is an author about whom limited public information is available; the author's writing centers on long-distance running and healthy living. Four works are held in the collection, all belonging to the "Hundred Marathons Life" series: Hundred Marathons Life, Starting at 55, together with the volumes running toward Boston, New York, and Tokyo. Judging from the titles and categories, the series takes marathon running as its theme and touches on health, sports, and essays, with a personal narrative and reflective tone. Using the "hundred marathons" as a thread, the books record the experience of running and racing and convey a spirit of perseverance and an active life, with particular attention to the possibilities open to older or middle-aged beginners. Since the author's biography, nationality, and educational background are not documented, no speculation is offered here; the profile rests solely on the subject matter of the works.
