.........If so, this book may be for YOU!!
I loved this Book!
I picked it up as an after thought at the recent library sale.
I was thinking I would preview it for one of my sisters.
I recently committed to run my second marathon with Amy
coming up in 24 weeks in Park City, Utah.
I felt maybe I could use a little
"Spark"
to stoke my running fire.
I was very surprised at how motivating and
basically thrilling this simple
common sense plan book about running was.
It is really more than that.
It is a book about taking control of your life,
and LIVING it.
The man that wrote it, you might know him best as
"The Penguin"
took up running at age 46.
He was quite over weight,
a smoker, drinker, bad eater....
He shares his experience.
Since that time, he has completed
40 marathons.
plus a truck load of other wonderful
life living, loving adventures.
I wish everyone would read it,
even if you have never considered running a step in your life.
and ESPECIALLY if the thought has ever
crossed your mind,
if you've toyed with the idea,
if it is something you always wanted to try,
but never thought you could.
Please go get this book.
There are WAY too many favorite quotes to include in a single post,
but here is one for you to consider today:
"The Miracle Isn't that I finished.
The Miracle is that I had the Courage to Start."

PS - I want to send it to all my sisters....what do I do? I want to loan it to friends,
and I also want to keep it.
HELP!!
