Capricorn Books of Jenkintown will host a book signing with Glenside resident and author Autumn Konopka on Saturday, November 18 from 2:00pm to 5:00pm.

Konopka will be in the bookstore chatting and signing her book, “Pheidippides Didn’t Die“, which details her experiences training for the Philly Marathon.

From the book’s description:

For Libby, running was the one thing that made everything better. But when her depression hits so hard even running doesn’t help, she finds herself hopeless and alone on the edge of the Ben Franklin Bridge. Then there’s Mac. Handsome, intelligent, and surprisingly awkward, he has less than twelve weeks to prepare for a marathon he never intended to run. When Libby agrees to help Mac train, neither anticipates just how much one race could change their lives—if they’re willing to step off their predetermined paths and chart a new course together.
