In 2007 Brain Training for Runners helped pave the way for some of today's mainstream concepts on running form and training. If you're looking for knowledge on what to focus on when you're running and WHY to focus on it, start here.
An incredible, journal-like following of the 1998 University of Colorado XC team by Chris Lear. Runners will appreciate, and non-runners will be amazed with, the intimate look at an elite team in action, dealing with the stresses of training and the tests of life.
The story that catapulted the minimalist/barefoot running movement. Author Christopher McDougall, motivated by his own struggles with injury, takes us on a journey that shows, with tremendous passion, the natural ability of the human body to run.
