9:57 AM. I’m not a runner but the book is good. Surprisingly, it was in a sale bin so maybe it wasn’t a popular seller but I think that anything Murakami chooses to write about will be interesting. He’s known for his fiction so this memoir-like piece is a departure from his usual. It really explains the impact of running on his writing. So, if you like Murakami, then check out this fast read for insight into his psyche.
