The Great Books of Running

Ben Passons lists some of the classic books for runners and about running, including Amby Burfoot’s Runner’s World Complete Book of Running, Duel in the Sun: The Story of Alberto Salazar, Dick Beardsley, and America’s Greatest Marathon by John Brant, and The Extra Mile by Pam Reed, the most dominant female ultra-marathoner of all time. “It’s just a good read about a woman trying to balance family, career, and a passion for running.” On GoSanAngelo.com.
