Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All-night Runner | Dean Karnazes

#MarchMadness Sports Story

The tagged is the first book I read, written by this witty marathoner. Miss lacing up and reading such inspiring tales

swynn I love Karnazes! I remember finishing Ultramarathon Man the night before my first sub-4:00 marathon. I swear he got me through the last six. 6y

BookishMe @swynn wow! Perfect reading material before the FM (will KIV ;)) I know what you mean about him getting you through. So many training runs and HMs completed with his words in my head - step by step - run when you can, walk if you have to, crawl if you must. 6y

Finding Gobi (Main edition): The true story of a little dog and an incredible journey | Dion Leonard

I went for a run this morning, but I kept spilling my #coffee 😆
.
.
I love reading about #adventure, #running & the #powerofthehuman spirit. #borntorun & #intothinair are 2 that I've read & loved.

Yesterday I picked up #findinggobi - true story of a dog running an #ultramarathon with #dionleaonard ❤🏃🏻🐶

Any #runner - #readers in the house?

Erinreadsthebooks I loved Born to Run! Fascinating read! 8y

tbreit Loved Born to Run..another great runner book is To Be a Runner by Martin Dugard. I am a runner and reader too! Do you listen to audiobooks on long runs? 8y

mcipher I'm on the couch to 5k track again (it's like the fifth time, but I only made it to a 5k once! 😆). So I guess aspiring runner? But I don't read about it unless a character runs in a novel about something else. 😉 8y

mellisarock @mcipher That makes you a runner. 😘 I was so inspired by Born to Run I added ultras to my bucket list! @tbreit I'm adding it to my Goodreads list & sadly I'm on a break from running. I wore myself out last year: ran 2 half marathons in one weekend. Qualified for half fanatics...but I haven't ran since. I've been looking at a full recently tho! 8y

tbreit Ultras are amazing! 2 half marathons in one weekend is a lot! The running bug will bite again 8y

Bookboss Running an ultra is also on my bucket list! 8y
