pick4/5 🌟
A memoir about running and writing. As someone who has recently taken up running, I found his reflections particularly resonant. Murakami delves into the mindset of a runner, discussing themes of discipline, endurance, and the solitary nature of both running and writing. An inspiring and informative book.

Lately I added so many thrillers on my tbr but right now I'm not in a mood for them.
We readers aren't only readers. We are also books collectors and 'tbr' collectors. Do you agree? 😁🤷♀️
“I‘ll be happy if running and I can grow old together.”
“My time, the rank I attain, my outward appearance—all of these are secondary. For a runner like me, what‘s really important is reaching the goal I set myself, under my own power. I give it everything I h, endure what needed enduring, and am able, in my own way, to be satisfied.”
Couldn‘t have expressed this better myself. Enjoyed his perspective about running & writing.

I was just reminded of this 1988 movie & it‘s what I thought of immediately for today‘s #Running prompt.
A family on the run from the FBI (due to the parents protesting & blowing up a lab in the 1970s) & the oldest son is looking at stoping running & starting his own life.
