	abstract="{This article examines The Outrun (2016), Amy Liptrot’s distinctive recovery memoir, which stands out amid the proliferation of similar works published in recent years. Most literary critics have focused on the memoir’s setting and, consequently, categorised the book as nature writing, largely overlooking its engagement with recovery. The principal aim of this article is to view The Outrun first and foremost as a literary record of confronting addiction and discovering ways to live in sobriety. Particular attention is given to Liptrot’s symbolic and metaphorical use of the natural world as a means of documenting her recovery.}",
