I am reading: Born To Run by Christopher McDougall
It is about ultradistance running, and centers mostly on a tribe that lives in Copper Canyon in Mexico who are amazing runners. It is about much more than that, and unfortunately, Mr Armstrong makes an appearance (used as a negative and positive example), but other than that, just a great book. It is developing a very cult like following already (was published this past May).
I don't want to spoil it too much, but the book is well written and is philosophically about pure sport. Running for the love of running. It is the counter balance to the sludge that is professional sports today.
