My Life on the Run: The Wit, Wisdom, and Insights of a Road Racing Icon

This is a great book for anyone who loves to run or even someone who loves to hear some of the craziest running stories. I would definitely recommend this book to any sports enthusiast who knows what it means to push it to the next level.

I have read dozens of books on running. This is by far the most entertaining book on the subject that I have read. The book is biographical, discusses many of the crazy races Yasso has ran, and has some training schedules for 5k, 10k, half-, and full marathons.

Excellent book. Very funny. I would recommend it to anybody whether newly starting in this sport or to a veteran. Great book to add to collection.

I was wondering when Bart would get around to writing a book about his running experiences. My Life On The Run made it worth the wait. If you want to find out what it's like to run in some of the strangest and most exotic races around the globe (and how to train for them), this is the book for you. Bart's writing pulls you into the event and holds you there with ease. You find that running is not only an adventure, but it's fun, too. I especially enjoyed his account of the Bare Buns 5-K, a nude run in Washington State. I ran the event myself, and it was just as Bart described it: "Interesting. Especially the water stops. Guys had orange vests on and no pants."
I highly recommend My Life On The Run. Whether you're a runner or a non-runner, Bart Yasso's book is a real page turner.

The book reads like a collection of short stories. It is very easy to pick up and read a quick chapter. But it is not easy to put down in the middle of a chapter. After reading this book I have started to plan my own adventures.

Mr. Yasso has produced a nice little running book about the places he's run and the people he has met. This is an easy, breezy read. Mr. Yasso does not seem too take himself to seriously and we can all live vicariously through his globe trotting adventures. I skipped past the training programs (You can pick one up in any running magazine, any month) but I did enjoy his list of favorite races.This book is a nice addition to your library of running books.
