Jesper Kenn Olsen er det eneste menneske, der har løbet Jorden rundt på tværs og på langs, kaldet hhv. World Run 1 og World 2. Sammenlagt over 63.000 kilometer.I denne bog fortæller Jesper hele historien om sit opsigtsvækkende World Run 2 fra Nordkapp i Norge, gennem Europa, Mellemøsten og Afrika til Cape Town og videre fra det sydligste Chile gennem Sydamerika og Nordamerika til målet i Newfoundland 28 lande og 36.917 kilometer senere. Han fortæller om at løbe alene og sammen med andre, om ikke at give op, når vinden hyler og man er faret vild i bjergene, når forsyningsbilen bryder sammen i en brandvarm ørken, når løvebrøl advarer om en lidt for spændende nat i teltet, når man løber i et land, hvor folk hver dag kaster sten efter en, eller når sygdom sætter kroppen ude af spil. Og han fortæller om de mange mennesker han møder, de fantastiske landskaber og om, hvordan man helt bogstaveligt klarer et parforhold i løb.Ifølge Jesper Olsen er det først og fremmest et spørgsmål om at ville kunne. Men også om benhårdt arbejde, disciplin og lysten til at udforske verden uden fordomme. Historien om World Run 2 er meget mere end en historie om et løb. Den vil kunne inspirere enhver til at turde og ville lidt mere. For alle Danmarks løbere må "Kunsten at ville" være den store inspiration." – Hjalte Tin, Politiken"Jesper Olsen fortæller, at han er inspireret af de store nordiske opdagelsesrejsende som Knud Rasmussen og Roald Amundsen ... Med sine World Run og beretningerne nærmer han sig samme liga som sine forbilleder." – Morten Albjerg Nielsen, idrætskonsulent og løbetræner"Dette er den bedste løbebog skrevet på dansk til dato ... er ubetinget gaven, der bare skal ligge under juletræet i år. Hvis det ikke var fordi jeg selv havde læst den, ville jeg nok købe den og pakke den ind til mig selv – bare så jeg var sikker på at få den." – Løbemagasinet
