Maybe I will re-read it and actually like it next time. But it is part of my book collection. I wouldn't be surprised if they re-publish the book. I am actually surprised they haven't considering they just published the sequel "Again To Carthage". Personally, I thought The Long Road To Boston by Bruce Tuckman was a much more interesting read. But it is also hard to find. Thanks, but I’ll keep it. Maybe I will re-read it and actually like it next time. But it is part of my book collection.

I knew many of the sayings before I ever picked up the book and the characters are somewhat universal.

Parker is not a terribly gifted writer, however, that being said, he is probably the perfect writer for this story. There are many places in this novel that a hard-core runner will say, "he must be reading my mind!" One will not feel sympathy for most of the characters, but one will definitely come to understand the mind-set of the miniacly single minded elite runner. John L.
