Don Fanelli suggested this book to me. This book is absolutely insane, and for anyone who is looking for additional motivation to get off their asses, this is the book. It isn’t about techniques, it doesn’t teach you how to run, and it just lets you in the head of a man who runs the longest races in the world. 200+ miles at a time. I’m seriously in love with this book and makes me feel like the biggest pussy in the world.

It also reminded me of the time that a bunch of UCB folk ran the 5K Pancreatic Cancer race, and how Purnell showed up on no sleep and having just left the SNL after after after party, and he out ran all of us. Seriously, fuck that guy.
