One second in time may separate the great athlete from the merely good. Seb Coe has made every second count. From an early age he was driven to be the best at everything he does. Since the moment Coe stood alongside a municipal running track in Sheffield, he knew sport could change his life. It did. Breaking twelve world records and winning gold in two successive Olympic Games (Moscow 1980 and Los Angeles 1984), he became a legendary middle-distance runner.

In 2005, Coe led London's bid for the Olympics, which transformed East London and inspired thousands. Born in Hammersmith and coached by his engineer father, Coe rose from a secondary modern school to world fame, with a fierce rivalry with Steve Ovett. Transitioning from sport to politics, he served in John Major's government and became chief of staff to William Hague before joining the House of Lords.

Running My Life offers an exhilarating, inspiring, and personal look at his journey, revealing how he achieved his remarkable success.
