As a drug-addled young man, Pete Magill once found


himself in the ER, with his body telling him to give up.
Taking up running seemed impossiblebut he willed
himself to do it anyway.
Magill went on to become one of the fastest
masters runners ever, and a sought-after coach. Over
a glowing (albeit hard-won) career, he has heard
every excuse people use to stop running or never
startfrom achy knees and sore ankles, to advanced
age and arthritis, to too many cigarettes or years on
the couch.
In every case, Magills best advice is to do what he
did: Run anywayat a pace and mileage that work.
Through inspiration, science, and anecdote, Magill
gets runners out the door; through personal action
plans, he sets them on the right path; and through the
best exercises to protect and rehabilitate the body, he
keeps them goingshowing a way forward for new
and sidelined runners who havent before realized
how close they are to fun and pain-free running!
PETE MAGILL, four-time USA Masters Cross Country
Runner of the Year, is the fastest-ever American distance
runner over age 50 in the 5K and 10K. He is the lead
author of Build Your Running Body and a former senior
writer and columnist for Running Times magazine. He lives

Developmental and clinical psychologist Diane Ehrensaft,


PhD, has devoted her career to the care of children
and teens who do not abide by the gender binary,
either in their gender identities or expressions. In her
first book, Gender Born, Gender Made, she coined the
phrase gender creative to replace what the American
Psychiatric Organizations Diagnostic and Statistical
Manual, at the time, still officially termed a disorder.
Now, in The Gender Creative Child, Dr. Ehrensaft gives
families, teachers, and therapists a totally up-to-date,
comprehensive resource to caring for children whose
gender expression is fluid or who question the gender
they were assigned at birth. In nine easily digestible
chapters, she encourages both parents and professionals
to listen to the children, support their quest for their
authentic gender selves, undertake a highly nuanced
assessment of their particular needs, and advocate for a
gender-expansive world.
A thought leader and champion of gender creative
identity, Dr. Ehrensaft illuminates the many routes that
children may take and answers the many questions that
parents and others will have.
DIANE EHRENSAFT, PhD, is Director of Mental Health
at the University of California, San Francisco, Child and
Adolescent Gender Center, and is the author of numerous
books and articles. NORMAN SPACK, MD, is Director of
Gender Management Services at Boston Childrens Hospital

bargained for at every turn. She knew she was joining
a flourishing community of volunteers who help
conserve nature, but she was surprised to learn how
this new and tech-enabled movement continues a
rich tradition of amateur observation established by
writers and naturalists over centuries. And she knew,
in the midst of an unprecedented mass extinction,
that she would find a shrinking number of species,
but she couldnt know how her fathers sudden
passing would tear open her quest to confront loss.
Ultimately, to be a citizen scientist is to intimately
examine all the life that still finds a way to survive.
So as Hannibal, alongside an inspiring cast of fellow

Brooklyn, just steps from downtown, she thought
she would be hard-pressed to find anything but
pigeons. But she was soon to be delightfully
surprised!
True, the Brooklyn Bridge once overshadowed a
decaying industrial waterfront, but today, it points
the way to Brooklyn Bridge Park. When Wolf set
out to photograph as many birds as she could in
the brand-new park, she found more than 100
species: orioles, thrushes, warblers, wrens, and
some that are extremely rare to the region. Birding
