Once (and still) a runner....

"Running to him was real, the way he did it the realest thing he knew. It was all joy and woe, hard as diamond; it made him weary beyond comprehension. But it also made him free."-

From Once a Runner by John L. Parker, Jr.
1978 (recently re-published)

I don't care what anyone says - that is absolutely my favorite running book and I will never, ever let go of my first printing edition.
