Books I have just read

'Bikila' Ethiopia's barefoot Olympian by Tim Judah.2008.

Pretty good book. Nothing much about his training but quite a bit about his life after his second Olympic Gold.

'Run to Overcome' by Meb Keflezighi.2010

This is a really good book. Amazing what this guy had to overcome in his early life and also his many injuries.Lots of great race descriptions.

Comment by Owain Vaughan Lewes on December 29, 2010 at 2:11pm: I've read the Barefoot Runner ( can't think of the author's name ) which is another great book. There's even a movie about him. The Athlete which was released a couple of years ago and tells the story of him after his car crash. I consider Abebe Bikila to be the greatest mens marathon runner in history- First man to win 2 Olympic marathons(the second in a new world record) and only beaten once in his career.
