Hello! I’m finally sharing my thoughts on The Runner’s World Big Book of Running for Beginners! (Below)
Thank you for all the comments on my Craziest Thing I’ve Seen on a Run post – the things you guys shared on Instagram made me laugh! A fish – no where near water. An ax?! I can go on…
I have a busy Tuesday going on over here, but first I started the day with a run. I take Sundays and Thursdays as rest days – unless I have a Sunday race and then I take Mondays off.
Just thought I’d share that in case you want to know my life story.
Today’s post isn’t just about the RW book. I also have a tip for ya…
Just the tip: Buy two of these bags. Then, you will have some left after you open the bag on the way home and eat them ALL. Hey, don’t the healthy peeps always tell us to “eat your greens!”?! Well, I did.
Me.
Runner’s World Big Book of Running for Beginners
A rep from Runner’s World sent me the RW Big Book Of Running for Beginners book a few weeks ago and I’ve been flipping through it slowly. The good thing is it’s not a novel so you don’t have to read it from start to finish in one shot. Most times I’ve opened it up to a random page and read some tips.
I realize I am not a new runner, but it’s always good to remember the basics! This was a good refresher to remind me the things YOU might want to read about too.
The book’s authors are very well known runner experts – Jennifer Van Allen, Bart Yasso and Amby Burfoot.
My favorite thing about the book is the #1 step of the “How to become a runner in 5 steps” chapter. I started my fitness journey by walking. I very very gradually found runner. And I’m still a big believer in walking for exercise and weight loss.
If you want to buy the book you can get it here.
I’m also giving away my copy of the book. I’ll send it anywhere in the world – so all are welcome to enter.
To Win This Copy of the RW’s Book of Running: Leave a comment on this post with the name of the last book you read.
Closes: 4/30 at 8am PST. Open to residents of Earth. All opinions are my own. I was provided with this book by RW.
The last book I finished was divergent and I am now working on the next one as well as ultra marathon man by dean karnazes.
I’m only admitting it because this is the internet and you don’t know me 😉
It was called “Three Weeks with Lady X” by Eloisa James. I’m a sucker for a trashy romance novel now that it’s Autumn and getting colder (other hemisphere… So I could definitely use some extra running motivation right about now!)
Little Princes: One Man’s Promise to Bring Home the Lost Children of Nepal & Gone Girl – I LOVE to listen to audiobooks while I run, so I hope the last book I listened to counts as the last book I “read”!
Another way of starting to run is starting to think about running.
The last book I read was “Orange was the New Black”, loved the show on Netflix so much had to read the book, what a disappointment! Currently reading “The fault in our stars”, so far so good!
The Husband’s Secret
The last book I read was Train Like a Mother.
PS Love the new blog design!
I finished Gone Girl in January and recently started Devil in the white city.
The last book I read was The Anglican Way by Thomas McKenzie. (It just came out and it’s really good, if anyone is interested in learning more about the Anglican tradition. :-))
Oooh! I would love to win this **Giveaway** for this book! To answer your question for the Giveaway, the last book I read was “Unbroken.” I love inspiring books and although I’ve been a runner, I’m always open to learning new things b/c I certainly have room to improve.

The last book I read was “Gone Girl” by Gillian Flynn, I loved it! I can’t wait to read more of her books.

Last book I read was Bossypants by Tina Fey. HILARIOUS!
Dried peas are the best. I picked up a bag at the grocery store this weekend but haven’t opened them yet because when I do, I know that I’ll eat the whole thing…
I’ve been really bad about reading real books this year. The last e-book I read AD-versaries (Jake Ainsworth).
I just re-read Born To Run last week. It was my fourth or fifth time reading it, but I still haven’t gotten up the nerve to run barefoot. My feet are sensitive. 😉
The last book I read was “after her.” It started out good, but the last third of the book was awful.
Where Men Win Glory (the story of Pat Tillman). Thanks for the opportunity and good luck on Saturday!

I just finished The Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling. It was a great book, not sci-fi, but her storytelling is so grabbing. Right now reading The Time Keeper by Mitch Albom. I am loving it so far and I think I’ll get a great lesson out of it about appreciating every second and not worrying about it either. And listening to Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere on my long runs, that counts right?
Thanks for the chance! The last book I read was “Goldfinch”
The last book I read was Gone Girl. I am actually training right now to run my 1st Half Marathon and would love to get tips from The Big Book of Running for Beginners!
I would love to read this book. Training for my first marathon and could use all the tips I could get! Last book I read was The Body Book by Cameron Diaz. I actually haven’t finished it because my e-reader decided to call it quits on me! Boo. But it was really good!
I am reading Tell the Wolves I’m Home (which so far is amazing) and ChiRunning!
