The Road to Sparta: Reliving the Epic Run that Inspired the World’s Greatest Foot Race

I love and respect Dean and what he's managed to achieve as a runner. An incredible athlete, is really amazing to hear first hand about his adventures. The only issue is that when it comes to his writing, he is distinctly Dean! The style and vice is so predictable that it can get a little boring at points.But if you are a runner and have always wanted an answer to the ultimate questions. What is a marathon and why is it so significant, then this is the book for you. For everyone else, I'd suggest 50-50.
