Not a well thought out review, darn me.

The Longest Race:

A Lifelong Runner, an Iconic Ultramarathon, and the Case for Human Endurance

by Ed Ayres

 

 

Running the JFK 100-mile race and reflecting on our past and our future. Very engaging reading. The future part isn't all that depressing--it's realistic and it makes you think. But he's still out there running...and that says it all.

I'm sorry not to write more but I was reading in a hurry which is a really stupid way to read. I should try it again sometime when it's not overdue at the library.
