Product Description

Fun and inspiring, and with a foreword from best-selling author Malcolm Gladwell, Why I Run is the new book from the founder of iRun magazine, Mark Sutcliffe. Drawing on more than five years of writing about running in newspaper columns, magazine features and blog postings, the 11-time marathon runner chronicles a journey that begins with a guy looking for a bit of exercise and evolves into running becoming a way of life. At once analytical, self-deprecating, enthusiastic and inspiring, Why I Run provides a fresh and rousing perspective on the rapidly growing sport that has allowed thousands of individuals to overcome challenges and fulfill their dreams, literally one step at a time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Running Book EVAH! Nov 28 2012
Format:Hardcover
I've read a few running books, some inspirational and others more technique based but Why I Run is by far the best running book I've ever read! The book is full of stories of either Mark himself or of fellow runners and I swear I was either smiling from ear to ear, crying because I was so touched by a story or laughing out loud because I could totally relate. This book CAPTURES what it feels like to be a runner and the joy, ecstasy, dedication and yes, sometimes pain of training for a race from start to finish. If you're a runner or you know someone who is, GET THIS BOOK!! I promise you, it will be your favorite running book!!! Especially if you've taken a longer than planned siesta from running and don't know where to get the passion to start again. This book will move you...literally. BUY IT!!!!

By Lauren

This is an incredibly funny and inspiring read. Any runner will relate (and laugh out loud) at the wonderful stories within. It made me want to put on my running shoes and hit the road. Highly recommend this to all runners and athletes! You will not be disappointed!

A hard book to put down, loaded with inspirational stories for the runner and non-runner alike. It's about running, but also about life. Highly recommended.
