With EG on Murakami - I found reading his book an event, an experience ... like tuning into an old-fashioned radio show and going with it. EG's right though, you do have to twiddle that dial. You wonder 'is this all there is?' and yet, on the basis that less can be more, it worked for me. I admire his single-minded approach, his dedication to training, something we could all learn from, and envy his precise, disciplined approach to writing.

'Feet In The Clouds' is one of the best books, on running or anything else, I've read in the past ten years. I re-visit now and again, usually when I'm in the running doldrums. Hmm ... where'd I put my copy?
