I’ve just finished reading Alexandra Heminsley’s “Running Like a Girl” which someone recommended on here - really enjoyed it ! Anyone suggest other good running-related books for rest days ?

I was going to suggest this - it’s the one that got me into C25K!!!

Whenever I started running, a friend of mine with many marathons under her belt suggested *Run Fat Bitch Run* my husband bought it for me that year in lieu of an Easter egg, it’s a funny read and she takes you through her trials and tribulations as she started out!

The author is Ruth Field ! Forgot to put that in😳

I can't recommend any books like that, as enjoy a good Crime book myself.... But I'm loving these titles and am writing them down as I type!

Thank you!

Also a crime fan. Happy to take any recommendations in that area too 😄

Hey Buttercup 👋 hope you’re ok 👌

I can highly recommend:

"Born To Run" by Christopher McDougall

I’d like to thank Irish-John for recommending it a month or so ago. It has got to be the best book I’ve read all year. Incredibly inspiring and an awesome read for all runners.

Very glad you enjoyed it

Thanks everyone. I shall pester the local librarian - though I suspect she’ll blanch at the Ruth Field title !
