‘The Tao of Running’ by Gary Dudney
It’s a running book. Not a great running book.
I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book, maybe an exploration into the mental side of what makes a good runner. I got that to a degree.
The book explores: mindfulness, staying positive, unleashing your inner trail monster, the wisdom of chilling out, the existential experience, finding your inner self, plus a load of other mental strategies. However, every chapter is a different 100 mile race the author ran – so it can all get a bit monotonous.
Some interesting little bits of advice, but overall, a book I probably wouldn’t recommend.

Unleashing the trail monster seems a little incongruous there, doesn’t it? Wouldn’t inspire me to buy 🙄
