I just got back from a week vacation during which I read Born to Run by Chris McDougall. I did a search here on RA and found some references to this book, but not as many as I would have expected. Anyway, it has inspired me to try barefoot running as a part of my regular regime. If you all haven't had a chance to read it, I think it was a great story and makes me realize what a true slug I am........and what amazing runners there are out there.
Anyway, I just thought I would put a plug out there for what I thought was a decent read.......
Cheers everyone!
Keep the running and fitness up and keep the weight from coming back.
Run more miles than last year.

I thought it was a great book! It has done wonders for barefoot running... we have never had so much interest. We're borderline D-list celebs now!
Agreed. I've read it twice now, and both times have gotten something different out of the book. I think I would recommend it above "Once a runner" for people who are interested in runner. I think it gives them better reasons to continue/start their training -- it is also easier to identify with.
