Running Hot 简介：

The Badwater Ultramarathon through California's Death Valley is one of the world's toughest races. Lisa Tamati was the first New Zealand woman to compete in the race alongside such legends of the sport as Dean Karnazes and David Goggins. But Lisa's story is so much more than that one race. At the age of 19 she suffered a crippling back injury and was told she should give up running. She took that as a challenge and, with her Austrian boyfriend, went on to run, walk, bike, and paddle her way across thousands of miles of Europe, Scandinavia, and Africa before taking on the ultimate challenge—an unassisted crossing of the Libyan Desert. What happened in that desert would change the course of Lisa's life and instill in her a love of desert running. Running Hot is a story of a life lived to the max—a story of challenges, setbacks, heartbreaks, and triumph.

Running Hot 评价：

"A strong, endearing and very personal account of one woman’s growth into extreme sports athleticism. There are even a few tips for those crazy enough to follow." —Australian Bookseller & Publisher Magazine

I'm a middle-aged and weak (like a normal m-age person), but I like to run and I'll like to test myself from time to time. This book was easy to read (even though my language skills are not good - my native language is Estonian). I read the book before I met Lisa and before the running event in Sahara in 2010. I got to know about her - why she is such as she is and the book helped me to understand himself, ultra running (theme) and survive in desserts (bad news - I don't learned about it; good news - I have one more person to care and admire).
Indeed - the book is not step by step instructions for running. Indeed, the book does not radiate enthusiasm and excitement (and unfortunately there's no talk of hot sex or politics). But whether a person's life is just a great joy and happiness (without politics and other crap)? I read this book and discovered that my life is still very good and easy. Probably I can do a lot more than I thought.

I really enjoyed this book, I thought it was written well..She's no novelist so don't expect that! What it gives is a good run down of her experiences which are gutsy if anything. She put up with much more personally than I think any normal person would in her personal life. Those experiences however have served her favourably however it seems in being able to push through whatever the situation and survive. A life well lived by the looks, going to download the newest release for a read as I found this one so inspirational!

Lisa's story is a fascinating read - not just for runners, but anyone who sets personal goals that stretches their imagination. As a runner myself, I enjoyed the insights Lisa shares of the extreme footraces she has raced in around the world and the various hurdles overcome to complete them. Great stuff!

Run! 26.2 Stories of Blisters and Bliss_Dean Karnazes_2012

An internationally recognized endurance athlete and New York Times bestselling author, Dean Karnazes has pushed his body and mind to inconceivable limits. TIME magazine named him as one of the "Top 100 Most Influential People in the World," Men's Fitness hailed him as the fittest man on the planet and he was the winner of the 2008 ESPY Award for "Best Outdoor Athlete."

Among his many accomplishments, he has run 350 continuous miles, foregoing sleep for three nights. He's run across Death Valley in 120-degree temperatures, and run a marathon to the South Pole in negative 40 degrees. On ten different occasions, he's run a 200-mile relay race solo, racing alongside teams of twelve. His long list of competitive achievements include winning the world's toughest footrace, the Badwater Ultramarathon, running 135 miles nonstop across Death Valley during the middle of summer. His most recent endeavor was running 50 marathons, in all 50 US states, in 50 consecutive days, finishing with the NYC Marathon, which he ran in three hours flat.

As an author, his first book was Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All-Night Runner. His 50-marathon feat was the basis for 50/50: Secrets I Learned Running 50 Marathons in 50 Days -- and How You Too Can Achieve Super Endurance! And on March 1, Rodale Books will publish Run! 26.2 Stories of Blisters and Bliss, Karnazes's new inspirational memoir, told in 26.2 chapters that take readers inside the heart and mind of someone who pushes himself to the limits of physical achievement.

Unbreakable Runner: Unleash the Power of Strength & Conditioning for a Lifetime of Running Strong

　　记得第一次参加百公里越野赛的时候，同事在MSN上跟我说“你是个神人”，另一位同事则在他的基础上加了几个字“你是个神经病人”。其实这样说也不错，在某些人眼里，我们这些狂热运动分子的行为确实挺奇怪的，放着舒坦的生活不去享受，却一次次把自己推到挣扎与痛苦的边缘。

近一年规律的长跑让我开始上瘾，有时也去附近的图书馆翻些有关长跑的书，研究怎样跑得更快，跑得更远。长跑的感觉实在太美妙了，尤其是你身体 的节奏，心跳的频率，耳中的音乐与自然环境融为一体时，人进入冥想状态，一种极度放松的境界。这种感觉通常在跑了至少半个多小时后才慢慢产生的。

他15年没跑过步，但在30岁生日那天，因为“中年危机”而酗酒、迷茫的他突发奇想。

深夜11点，他走出酒吧，面朝南方一路狂奔30英里（48公里），跑了一个通宵。

第二天一早，他双腿酸痛，没法走路，打电话让妻子开车接自己回家。

他名叫迪恩·卡纳西斯（Dean Karnazes，发音car-NAH-sis）——被誉为“世界最著名超级马拉松跑者”的美国加州人。

当今世界，谁跑得最快？这个答案已经妇孺皆知。在历届奥运会或世界锦标赛上，只有100米项目的冠军才能被称为“世界上跑得最快的人”，博尔特自然当之无愧。但是，谁跑得最远？这个答案恐怕没多少人知道。

七月三十一日凌晨，上飞机出发三藩市马拉松，六个多小时后到达北京，将在这等上十小时再转机到美国。原本盘算到鸟巢附近转转，中国大使馆却给了我一个很烂的理由婉拒了我的签证申办。明白到奥运安全的压力，我看，大使馆一般不轻易发出签证。只能傻傻的呆在第三机场啦。

一直以来就想跑这一个马拉松，年青的时候读过不少关于金门大桥的传说与浪漫故事，可以跑在桥上就变成了一个响往。三藩市，又称旧金山，华人先辈有一 批人潮到那讨生活，直到金子被淘尽了，新金山在澳洲出现，澳洲新金山所在地也是我大学址所，所以跑旧金山又好象有一些牵强的联系。这是个得过不奖状的马拉 松，最佳马拉松、最佳项目跑步衣。。。令我兴奋的是可以用跑的方式游走在金门大桥上。上个月就已经报名了，但问了机票价，咋舌咧，希望船到桥头自然直，忽 然出现特价机票，让我可以成行。

和下馆子、听小曲儿、旅游、购物比起来，参加长跑运动（比如马拉松），绝对是个痛苦的过程，为此还要花钱、费力、搭时间，真可谓“痛苦消费”。可就是有这么一群人，不避寒暑，天南海北地坐着飞机到各地参加长跑比赛，乐此不疲。想来“痛苦消费”里面也有甜头，也有享受。

  险峻的关隘，葱茏的群山，逶迤的道路。4月25日清晨，98名参加THE NORTH FACE 100北京昌平户外耐力跑挑战赛2009的选手兴奋地聚集在居庸关长城前，或热身，或拍照，或补给，或换装……都说“不到长城非好汉”，能在长城上下跑百公里，更被誉为“钢人”。
