Good basic information, nice pictures, and very inspirational. The author clearly loves this sport. Thumbs up.

Gotta say, I was quite disappointed with this book. I am a novice runner who is thinking about getting into trail running -- and I'm also an experienced hiker, climber, etc. I was expecting this book to talk to me about the details of trail running, but instead, it dwells over-long on just being in the backcountry -- just like any other hiking book, but not as well as the best of that genre. So ... I returned it.

I love jumping into new sports but always manage to wind up with a million tedious questions. As a relatively new trail runner, this book answers what I want to know about training for ultras. Now I feel confident that I can bypass the ... personal trainer route AND talk about more interesting things than mileage with my fellow trail running friends. What a relief, all around I'm sure. Too bad it wasn't out 6 months ago when I needed to pick out shoes and started training for my very first marathon!

I really, really enjoyed this book. I've always loved running, but for years I always kept to the roads. I always wondered what kind of running experience I would have "in the woods" but never dared to venture off the paved surfaces. This book gave me the confidence to do just that, and I'm amazed at what I've been missing all these years. Animals, scenery, rivers, mountains, sunrises and sunsets... what a treat. Thank you for writing this book. My senses (and also my knees) thank you!
