I loved this book! It made my plods along the local trail seem so much more meaningful knowing that the sport can lead to such incredible experiences. And it made me look forwards to what tales my own running will bring.

This book was alright. Yasso’s achievements and athleticism are obviously impressive but something was missing in the writing. I establish parts of it to be dull. I’m still on the look out for a book about running that is comparable to: Born to Run by C. McDougall.

Bart Yasso’s tale is inspirational because of all he has gone through as a runner and notably his battle with lyme disease that has severely limited his running today. He tells some fantastic tales in this book from running from a rhino to running in a nude race to running in the extremes of Death Valley to the Antarctic. It seems there has never been a race that Yasso wasn’t willing to tackle. I’m a runner and I couldn’t place it down. Whether you’re a runner or just like bizarre adventures or both, you’ll like this book.

I’ve read a few books by runners such as Karnazes, Pam Reed, and collections of runner’s tales such as Running Through the Wall, and Then The Scavenger Eats You, and Ultrarunning: My Tale. I’ve come to one conclusion: every lifetime runner has tales but unless it’s something cpmpletely incredible I’m not that interested in listening. maybe I’ve just read too much but nothing in this book really excited me. I’m sure it has been incredible to be a participant in all of these runs but I would have liked a small more depth as a replacement for of a survey of a lifetime of running.
Worth reading, just could have been better.

Bart’s book is absolutely hilarious and inspiring. His tales are witty and humorous. I was laughing out loud at the Taco Bell tale, the cross country bike tale, and the bare buns run! Fantastic read, I couldn’t place it down. Bart is a legend.
