That’s quite a collection! I was wondering if you’d consider adding a Children’s section. What better way to share your passion than by passing it along to the next generation?

Like Ms. Geraghty, I’d be happy to forward a copy of my book your way for review. We Are Girls Who Love to Run/Somos Chicas y A Nosotras Nos Encanta Correr is a children’s picture book that celebrates girlhood and the ways running enhances life and interpersonal relationships.

I also suggest Carol Goodrow’s books: Happy Feet, Healthy Food, Kids Running: Have Fun, Get Faster & Go Farther, and The Treasure of Health & Happiness.

Happy running and reading!

This is a great collection of running books! Certainly a few on there that I haven’t seen before but I will be looking into them in the near future as I can’t seem to get enough of running books. One that I would add to your list because it is one of my favorites that I find inspirational is “Running With the Legends” by Michael Sandrock. It’s basically small bios of 21 of the most famous runners of all time. It’s amazing to read how these runners trained which gives me inspiration to push harder in my own training.

“Born To Run” by Christopher McDougall changed my 37 year running life (I’m 45; began running at 8). Chronic achilles tendon pain, sore knees…you know the drill. But by changing my technique, doing a lot of barefoot walking and running, I can now run up to 7 days a week without pain. Besides, it’s a great read.

I just read a relatively new running book called “An Honorable Run.” It is fantastic. I have read many of these books and this one ranks right up there with the best. If you have ever had a great coach, you need to read this book.

Hello there,

thank you for your great list on the best running books out there. Sadly I note mine is not included! Last year (2008) my book, ‘Anyone Can Run’ was published in Ireland by Currach Press, documenting my story of developing a passion for running at 40 and featuring interviews with other ‘oldie’ runners declaring their passion for the sport.
Earlier this year my second book, ‘Fit For Success’, was published, detailing how regular hard-core fitness training (mostly running), helps business people become more successful!
If you have a little time to look at or read either/or both of my books, I would be delighted to have my publishers forward you copies.

Please keep up the good work

kind regards

Throwing my vote in for Born To Run, I’ve never read something so compelling, and the story of the native Tarahumara runners makes me seriously rethink my attitude towards running. We should all feel the joy from it that they do.
