The Best Advice to Get Started - and Train for Any Distance
The Best Advice to Get Started - and Train for Any Distance

Review:I could not decide between this book and the similarly-titled one by Claire Kowalski so I actually went to the bookstore and spent some time flipping through them both. They both seem very good and well-informed, but the Kowalski book is definitely geared more toward beginners (in tone, mostly, but also in content). I am looking to move from beginner to intermediate level running and found that this book fit my needs much better. This one I think is also good for beginners, but the Kowalski b... Read more

Running Like a Girl: Notes on Learning to Run
Running Like a Girl: Notes on Learning to Run

Review:Great read - can't recommend it highly enough. I found this book in the library when I was starting to run last year. It really encouraged me that I could do it - and I've never run and I'm not what you would call an athletic build. Now I'm hooked, running at least twice a week. I've bought this book for my girl friends who are starting their running journey or who are stalled on their way and I also down loaded it to my kindle.

If you ever thought that you might like to run - read Hemm... Read more

A Journey to Inner Peace and Freedom - Yoga for Life
A Journey to Inner Peace and Freedom - Yoga for Life

Review:I sent this back. The cover promised more than the book actually delivered. Saidman Yee's story is somewhat interesting, but the accompanying images were uninspiring. She should have stuck to writing an autobiography for half the price, but even that would have been a stretch. There were small black and white images of asanas and an artsy black and white image of the author at the beginning of a chapter. This is not a book I would reach for again and again. "The Sivananda Companion to Yoga" is ... Read more
