Beginner\u27s Running Guide
Hal Higdon’s Beginning Runner’s Guide is a compact booklet (32 pages in its print edition) that tells you all you need to know about starting to run. Everything from what clothes to wear to what steps to take to how to enter your first 5-K. Beginning Runner’s Guide will not tell you how to train for a marathon, but if you follow its simple instructions, it will get you to the point where you can at least consider that idea.https://openprairie.sdstate.edu/prairiestriders_pubs/1194/thumbnail.jp

4:09:43 : Boston 2013 Through the Eyes of the Runners
4:09:43, takes its title from the time into the 2013 Boston Marathon when two bombs exploded and is a compilationof accounts provided by those taking part. It focuses on the accounts of 75 runners, collected through social media: blogs posted online, stories offered on Facebook and e-mails sent to the author. The book presents these stories, condensing and integrating them into a smooth-flowing narrative that begins with runners boarding the buses at Boston Common, continues with the wait at the Athletes\u27 Village in Hopkinton and flows through eight separate towns. The story does not end until the23,000 participants encounter the terror on Boylston Street. These are not 75 separate stories, says the author. This is one story told as it might have been by a single runner with 75 pairs of eyes.https://openprairie.sdstate.edu/prairiestriders_pubs/1422/thumbnail.jp
