Looking for a new book to read that inspires my running

christinehetz80 · February 2012

I want to buy a book or two about running/runners etc, Most of all I want to be inspired. I would love a book about fellow female chica runners, but doesn't have to be. I have Ultramarathon Man in my Amazon cart right now and figured I'd take advantage of the "free shipping". by adding in another book.

Thanks!

Ultramarathon Man is a great pick... you should also try "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall. Both are super easy reads and really inspiring!

"Born to Run" meets all your needs.

I found "The Perfect Mile" by Neal Bascomb to be very inspirational. After reading what those three guys had to work around to get their training done, I have never again felt like I don't have time.

Thank you everyone for suggestions. I have heard fantastic things about Born to Run will add that to my next cart. This cart I went with Ultramarathon Man and Sole Sisters
