Putting the great stories to paper

If you have ever seen Bart Yasso as a speaker you are aware of his brilliant delivery.The book delivers the same.Kathleen Parrish does a great job of putting Bart's great stories to paper.
I got the book and couldn't wait to read it.I thought it was going to be good but it was even better then I thought. I couldn't put it down. I found it very enlightening and inspiring. It made me choke up a couple times and laugh out loud others.
I loved the book!!!! It is a must read for any runner or non runner.

Don't even think of not reading this...

It's been a special several months for running months. Late last year, Ben Cheever's STRIDES came out and now Yasso's book.

Less polished than Cheever's book but every bit as special, buy it if you're a runner and buy it for a runner if you're not - they will THANK you.

Many people say they have the greatest job in the world, but through these pages Yasso makes you believe he deserves the honor and - even more so - makes you see that he believes he deserves the honor. Simply put, a classic from a classic.

Funny, wise, then funny again

I loved this book! It made my plods along the local trail seem so much more meaningful knowing that the sport can lead to such amazing experiences. And it made me look forward to what stories my own running will bring.

Taco Bell is bad for you! (Both the burro and the fast food place)

I laughed, I cried (okay, one tear), and for a fleeting moment I was almost jealous that I have never been in a Burro race. This book is hard to put down once you start it. I would say it is a must read even if you are not a runner.

Good Travel Read

All in all, I thought this book was very entertaining. I am an intermediate runner, who loves to hear the experiences of other runners. The stories contained are all well written and entertaining. This will motivate current runners to try and experience new races and novice runners to get off the coach.
