What does a middle aged suburban mom who runs for fun have in common with a champion ultramarathoner? I picked this one up with the hopes that I'd learn a little about what makes Jurek tick and I wasn't disappointed. I posted detailed review on my blog. You can read it here: http://oldrunningmom.blogspot.com/201... if you're interested!

O carte care se citește ca o cursă de alergare, nu te oprești pînă cînd nu o termini. Și pe cărările căreia cu siguranță vei reveni. O recomand cu căldură atît alergătorilor, cît și celor care nu aleargă (încă). În plus e condimentată cu rețete interesante, fie că ești vegetarian sau nu.
This book teaches how to go farther. By farther I mean more than 8 hours running or 3-5 marathons. It even improved my endurance as a reader, it is impossible to stop reading! Scott is an inspiring super athlete and he has the Chomsky speech: if I did it, you can do it as well. Because pain only hurts and sometimes we just do things! Signing up for an ultra-marathon this year… many thanks Jurker!
Personal story with great vegan recipes. Scot is a legend of ultramarathon and his life story is quite interesting. After finishing the last page you have the feel that you understand why the guy runs more 100k and he enjoys it.
Almost made me want to go Vegan...Almost! Some great stories and tasty sounding recipes. Scott makes eating Vegan sound easy and fulfilling.
