Favorite Running Related Books?

Hey, all! I've been hiking the Appalachian Trail for the past 24 days and I've had some time to catch up on my reading. One of my favorites lately is The Pursuit of Endurance by Jennifer Pharr Davis, chronicling hiking history but also her own endurance pursuits and how they've influenced her day to day life. Another favorite of mine is Deena Kastor's Let Your Mind Run, which I love because it explores the mental aspects of running and how important it is to develop a mental strength in addition to a physical one. Shalane Flanagan also has two great cookbooks that I love trying recipes from :) What are your favorite running-related books?

"Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall comes highly recommended

Haruki Murakami's "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running". It's a great book about running and writing!
