RE:
Let us know what you think of the Running Free book, Sweder. Might I venture to say it sounds a little po-faced from the article. Then again, I do get fed up with reading endless blogs and columns about the latest must-have piece of kit. But then again, no-one's forcing me to read them...
The "marathon nearly killed me" article is an interesting one. As I think someone was remarking on the Moyleman thread, it's often an experienced runner with a medical condition (in this case pneumonia) that has serious problems. I'm not sure how you can participate in running as a sport rather than just a pastime without taking notice of time and pace. OK, you can run to effort level rather than pace, but I'm not sure that's really any different.
