Slow AF Run Club
Slow AF Run Club
A practical guide and a celebration of running for runners of all sizes and athletic ability, from the founder of the Slow AF Run Club.
Ten years ago, Martinus Evans got some stern advice from his doctor: "Lose weight or die." First defensive, but then defiant, Evans vowed that day to run a marathon, though his doctor thought he was crazy. Since then, Evans has run eight marathons and hundreds of other distances in his 300-something pound body, created his own devoted running community, and has been featured on the cover of Runner's World.
This book is a blueprint for those who may not fit the image of a "traditional" runner--that is, someone who is larger in size, less athletic, out of shape, or dealing with any kind of health issue that slows them down--to feel empowered to lace up their shoes and embrace the body they have right now.
As Evans says, the incredible benefits of running--better sleep, strong muscles and bones, better cardiovascular and mental health, and a sense of community--can and should be available to all of us. This practical handbook contains specialized advice to make getting started less intimidating, covering everything from gear and nutrition to training schedules, recovery tips, races (it's okay to come in DFL! [i.e., dead f*cking last]), and finding a running group. Full of essential advice and humor from a former newbie who fell off a treadmill on his first run (literally), The Slow AF Run Club is for anyone who wants to pick up running for the sheer joy of it.

from 239 reviewsJune 2025 Box!
I absolutely LOVED everything in my box. The cute earrings that I’ve already gotten multiple compliments on make running more fun. The sunscreen that my kids took has came in handy on pool days. And so so much more!!!!

My wife loves it. I recommend this for all supportive husbands or boyfriends of avid runners.

❤️❤️❤️ these surprises every month! So much fun as a runner.

I bought these for my mom as a birthday/Mother’s Day gift and so far they have been awesome! She really loves them and enjoyed the virtual 5k as well.

I have received two She Runs Boxes and after every time I have enjoyed the items, I am eager for the next box! All the items are motivating me to keep running and exercising!

I’m trying to get back into running. This box is hoping me learn to do it right again.

I loved the ear rings. .I’m always excited to see my box in the mail. Can’t wait until the next one!!

I was so excited to get my first run box. Loved all the goodies in it. Plus the little cards .

I have been running for a long time, but thought it would be nice to see what is new out there. I love the little earrings & bag. I can’t wait for the next box to arrive.

I got this as self-motivation and enjoy monthly surprises.

Every product is curated with a runner in mind and is universal whether you are a seasoned pro or a newbie like me. They have a great way of finding items that you don't think of and then wonder how you ever lived without them! Cannot recommend this enough!

As a joke, I asked them to draw on my first box, and they did! I only meant to get the one box, but after seeing the contents, I stayed for more.

Very excited to get my items! Great way to try new products and cute items for motivation!
