5 out of 5 stars Excellent Read   September 9, 2008
This book is an excellent read for runners, as well as non-runners. There are some people in the world who squeeze the most out of life, and Bart Yasso is one of them. A truly inspiring story.


5 out of 5 stars An Inspiring Book from an Inspiring Man   August 5, 2008
I just finished running the San Francisco Marathon where I also had the great privilege of meeting Bart Yasso. He was kind enough to meet with me one-on-one in our hotel and just chat about life, and then autograph my copy of his book. I admire him most for his ability to talk about those obstacles he has overcome and his tremendous accomplishments without sounding vainglorious or boastful. This book is a great example of Bart's ability to inspire anyone who will read or listen simply by sharing a piece of the Man he is. Buy this as soon as you finish reading this review. Seriously. Do it now! Thanks, Bart!


5 out of 5 stars Laugh Out Loud!   July 22, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

Bart's book is absolutely hilarious and inspiring. His stories are witty and humorous. I was laughing out loud at the Taco Bell story, the cross country bike story, and the bare buns run! Great read, I couldn't put it down. Bart is a legend.

5 out of 5 stars For anyone interested in running   July 20, 2008

Bart Yasso's stories are funny (he is a pun master) and entertaining,while inspiring the reader to get out and run a lot of miles! I read excerpts from this book in Runner's World, bought the book, and have given copies as gifts. Everyone I know who has read it really likes it.
