My Favorite Running Book Giveaway

Hello! I have some good news and bad news for you today. The bad news first, right?

I ate all the Health Warrior Bars the company sent me out of the blue last week.

The good news? They also sent me a copy of my FAVORITE running book and I’m giving it away to you!

First let’s talk about running and eating…

Today is a cross training day. I took a walk while listening to my latest audio book. Then, I did the Upper Body workout from the 21 day fix on demand. I actually really like doing strength workouts while watching TV. It goes by so fast, but at the end my muscles are nice and tired.

Then, I ate oatmeal with PB and eggs with ketchup and salsa. Vegas was a little curious, but not interested in any bites. More for me!

I woke up to my lil tomato growing so well! I’m proud of it.

Until my tomato crop is ready for harvest I have to keep buying produce in bulk at Costco. Some people have mentioned they can’t / don’t buy produce from Costco because there’s so much and it goes bad. Yeah, I can’t relate to that. I eat it all.

Running Book Giveaway

Okay now for the giveaway of my favorite running book…

My favorite book about running so far is Born to Run by Christopher McDougall. I read it years ago and still call it my favorite because I feel like it’s an interesting story and inspirational. It’s about his experience with the Tarahuamara Indians who are considered super long distance runners.

Fun Facts:

I tried chia seeds in 2009 after reading about them in the book.

I ran the Born to Run Ultra Marathon 50K in 2013. It’s in California, not Mexico but is organized by a photographer that has worked and ran with the Tarahuamara.

There is a movie about Born to Run in the works, but there’s not a lot of info available on it now.

I’m giving away this copy of Born to Run to one RER reader since I already have a copy. It’s open to anyone I can mail to on Earth with an address.

Optional: I’ll send Vegas with the book if you want him. He likes to hang out in boxes.
