Happy Friday! We’ve got FIVE incredible co-hosts My First 5K and More, Running With Attitude, Run Laugh Eat Pie, Runs with Pugs, and me for another Fit Five Friday link-up!
These are my favorite running-related books in no specific order.
• To The Gorge. It was well written. I felt like I was there with Emily. I would love to meet her, give her a hug, and ask about her training.
• The Longest Race. I knew the issues with Nike, but wow, this book talks about so much more. This made me like Kara Goucher even more.
• Choosing To Run. She is my favorite elite runner. I will always root for her.
• Boston Bound. It is an easy to read book that details Elizabeth Clor’s struggles as she attempts to get a BQ. She tried for 7 years and finally qualified in October of 2014. She ran the Boston Marathon on April 18, 2016.
• The Bright Side Running Club. This was a book reviewed by Wendy. It was heart-warming, sad, and funny too.
The topic for next week – Runfessions with Marcia. We hope you’ll link up with us!
Great minds. We agree on 3 of the 5.
I’ll add to other 2 to my reading list.
We sure do! I will add the other 2 books to my list.
Those sounds like good books — and there seems to be a theme of women overcoming challenges.
Hopefully, you will read a couple of the books that were recommended.
I’ve read both Des and Kara’s books – will have to add the others to my need to read list.
Let me know if you like them.
