“One of the five best books on running.”—Benjamin H. Cheever, Runner’s World Magazine. Boston Marathon winner Amby Burfoot, one of running’s wisest voices, presents 15 life lessons about passion, courage, materialism, failure, and regeneration, all learned during his more than 35 years of experience in running.

Here Amby Burfoot discusses a runner’s essential traits—qualities necessary for everyone striving to reach a long-term goal—as well as the writing, music, and quotes that have continually inspired him. Most important, Burfoot explains that winners are not those who cross the finish line first, but those who discover more about themselves with every step. Lessons include:

How to Create a Life of Perpetual New Beginnings
On Tapping the Profound Power of Human Interaction
In the Race to Be Your Best, There is No Losing
What You Really Need, You Already Have
On the Power of Short Steps, Steady Progress
And more.

Buy it for your mom or dad, your running partner, or for yourself. It will become a handbook to guide your way—both in your running and in your life.
