Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
One Black woman's transformative journey of running through grief
In the wake of profound grief at the loss of her mother, Tiffany Gayle Chenault decided, at age 40, to run a half-marathon in all 50 states. Black Woman Runner explores running as a space of survival, healing, joy, while also shedding light on the experiences of Black women who participate in the largely white-dominated world of recreational running.
Chenault unpacks her own lived experience in order to contemplate the racial space of running: not just the physical neighborhoods where casual runners might run, but also where races are held, what the market for products for runners looks like, and how and to whom running is marketed. Deconstructing the stereotype of the ""strong Black woman,"" Chenault investigates the meaning of identity and the embodiment of being a runner, particularly a Black woman runner.
In what she calls her ""twenty-first-century Green Book,"" Chenault offers vivid insights into current-day racial realities while traveling to all 50 states. Ultimately, this is a story about movement — through space, emotion, and identity. It's about the culture of running, but more urgently, about who runs and why it matters.
