Over 35 million people will go running this year in the United States alone. For some of us, it's more than just a hobby-over 11 million of us are runaholics. Runners and addicts. Addicts and runners.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is a hilarious and should be part of any passionate runner's library. I have given it as a gift a few times (after my own copy was stolen by a runaholic!), and it is always a smash hit!
Witty, candid, and realistic

This being the second book I've read by Scoop, it always surprises me how he writes with his voice. I can hear the inflection and tones chage as he writes. Very fun indeed.
Just what the doctor ordered for this runner!

Fortunately there is a book that allows me to feel somewhat normal...a very funny look at running and the quirks of all runner's. Highly recommended for those who run and those who don't and can't understand why we do!!
great mix of practical knowledge and humor

I laughed all the way thru this book. I appreciated the candid nature as well as the useful information. Every runner should own a copy!

this was a laugh out loud book; chapter 4 was my favorite; the 6 classifications of obsessive runners made me laugh till i realized i had a little of all six in me.
