I just recently finished a few books that I am sure many of you have read already, but wanted to give my advice to read them if you have not.
The first book was Once a Runner by John L. Parke. Great read for anyone wanting some good motivation and an interesting perspective of a top-level runner. The writing style was a bit challenging for me to follow, but if I could do it anyone can haha.
Another Christmas book I got to read recently was 17 Hours of Glory by Mathias Mulle “Thanks Mom and Dad.” This book brought many different Ironman World Championship stories together to make one inspirational book. Went from Top end Pro athletes like Dave Scott, to amazing adventures of Age Group athletes accomplishing their goals after some challenging set backs.
The last book that I got to read, already has a lot of hype around it was Born To Run by Christopher McDougall. Not much to say about the book other then it’s a just a great book that you have to read and take it in for what it is worth to you.
Other then the book scene the magazine readings have been awesome! Would totally recommend the new Lava Magazine for lots of good articles to learn a whole bunch about the triathlon sport as well as the Triathlete Magazine. I get so excited when I get my two Magazines in the mail its like Christmas with a whole bunch of knowledge to be socked up.
