First Marathons

A great book about 37 first marathons. You'll read first person accounts of great runs, bad runs and everything in between. Some of the marathoners you'll know like Grete Waitz, Bill Rodgers and Paul Mbugua and some runners you've never heard of. Some will inspire you to run a marathon and some will give you pause.

Che Running

A book that combines the disciplines of running and Tai Chi. The author wants you to be able to run pain free without the risk of injury. Like in Tai Chi, he discusses correct body posture and how the tilt of your body from your ankles is like the accelerator in a car. He believes the effort in your legs should be minimized, that you should run from your center.
