I don't typically do give aways. In fact, I've only ever done one, which was about two years ago when I got a copy of Born to Run for Christmas. I already owned an autographed copy, and decided to give away the second copy to a reader of my blog.
In the spirit of the holidays, I want to do the same thing this year by giving away this book:
Like it says on the cover, it's a collection of stories from over the years in Runner's World. Some I'd read in the magazine, some were new to me, but almost all were fascinating, inspirational and wonderfully written.
Please know this is not some lame attempt to garner more readers or pageviews or whatever. I simply want to give back while sharing my love of reading and running, and hope this book and its stories will inspire you like it has me.
Just like last time, in order to enter this give away you do not need to like my facebook page or retweet my inane tweets or any of the other hoops other bloggers make you jump through. All you have to do is leave me a comment on this post telling me your 2014 running goals and resolutions, and a way to contact you.
I'll write a post in the next day or two detailing my own 2014 running goals. Let's just say it's going to be an epic year.
The give away will end one week from today on Friday January 3rd. I'll draw a name from a hat, and then send one reader the book. I'll even pay for shipping and handling myself. Good luck, and thanks for reading!
In 2014 I would like to get back to where I can run a full 5K without walking. Pretty modest for someone who ran 7 marathons, but Father Time has a way of doing that.
ReplyDeleteIn 2014 my goals are to run a half and full marathon with my daughter. Would also like to set PRs at 5k, 10k, HM, and full. Should be doable since I've only been at this 3 years.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I enjoy reading your blog. (I post on RWOL under the same name)
