One unbelievable read
Tweet At work we’ve been listening to (not really reading. My bosses would frown on us reading instead of working) Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Super Athletes, and the Greatest Race the World has Never Seen by Christopher McDougall. This book is fascinating. Since I’m training for the Seattle Half Marathon it seemed appropriate [...]

Race 3 down
