For Fans of Once a Runner...

There aren't many fiction books about running. That may be because John L. Parker Jr. dropped the mic with his Quentin Cassidy trilogy. If you're looking for a little inspiration...for running or some other pursuit requiring dedication, hard work and sacrifice, give Once a Runner a read. If you like Once a Runner, I think you'll enjoy A Reason to Run .
