      The author is known as "the finest unknown running writer in America," which is a title I thought I had, but I'll concede. The short book is amusing and a good appetite whetter for his more extensive work, which I'll scope out. Gift this to a budding running friend. He/she will appreciate it (and gift What I Think About When I Think About Running, by Haruki Murakami to a friend who's been running for a long, long time).
