Peter Sagal, the host of NPRâs Wait Wait...Donât Tell Me! and a popular columnist for Runnerâs World, shares âcommentary and reflection about running with a deeply felt personal story, this book is winning, smart, honest, and affecting. Whether you are a runner or not, it will move youâ (Susan Orlean).
On the verge of turning forty, Peter Sagalâbrainiac Harvard grad, short bald Jew with a disposition towards heft, and a sedentary star of public radioâstarted running seriously. And much to his own surprise, he kept going, faster and further, running fourteen marathons and logging tens of thousands of miles on roads, sidewalks, paths, and trails all over the United States and the world, including the 2013 Boston Marathon, where he crossed the finish line moments before the bombings.
In The Incomplete Book of Running, Sagal reflects on the trails, tracks, and routes heâs traveled, from the humorous absurdity of running charity races in his underwearâin St. Louis, in Februaryâor attempting to âquiet his colonâ on runs around his neighborhoodâto the experience of running as a guide to visually impaired runners, and the triumphant post-bombing running of the Boston Marathon in 2014. With humor and humanity, Sagal also writes about the emotional experience of running, body image, the similarities between endurance sports and sadomasochism, the legacy of running as passed down from parent to child, and the odd but extraordinary bonds created between strangers and friends. The result is âa brilliant book about runningâĶWhat Peter runs toward is strength, understanding, endurance, acceptance, faith, hope, and charityâ (P.J. OâRourke).
