Book Review: The Runners Rule Book


The Runners Rule Book was a great combination of humor, reality and sound advice.  It covered everything from getting to know Step Prefontaine to using socks as toilet paper instead of leaves.  No joke!
The etiquette of running seems to be a vanishing sport, the 'rules' of which side to run on, how to pass, how to cooperate with traffic and whatnot seem known to some, but not to everyone.  It's this kind of 'rule' book that is very much needed, with some actual 'rules' or at least guidelines to go by.  In my experience, people seem to have different ideas of the rules, and while some make sense, others just don't care. 

It's a fun book that likely any runner will enjoy, especially knowing that one can relate to many situations and experiences in the book.  While maybe not an official 'rules' book, it's filled with both practical and fun guidelines to follow to make the most of the running experience.
