Anyone have favorite books on running? Most I've seen haven't been that good, though I'm currently reading Pre, which is a short biography about Steve Prefontaine who was one of the best U.S. distance runners of all time. It's interesting to read about his track meets and how hard he pushed himself to get better. Also touches on tactics of the races a bit. Would recommend it to people who are into running (as I assume people in this Guild are).

Do you have any recommendations?
