### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Not for runners only: for everyone!
  

*by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016*

I was going to wait until I finished this amazing book before I wrote this, but I want others to enjoy it while I am doing so!  Amby has captured such an important part of "our" history.  It's not just about running, it's about the pursuit of something bigger than yourself, it's about finding peace of mind and friendship.  I am not a runner, but so appreciate these precious vignettes of ladies that came from all walks of life with the common theme of running that eventually brought them together.  Having personally met many of them at the recent Boston Marathon, the oral histories were so powerful and inspiring.  Globally and in the US, these profiles stand on their own and Amby's intimate knowledge having run with many of these women makes it ever so personal. He is a champion of running, of history, of women, and a great writer and lovely human being.  I hope everyone reads his book.

    This is a great book, with the exception of the last chapter
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2016*

This is a great book, with the exception of the last chapter, where Oprah Winfrey is included amongst runners who are way out of her league. Oprah in no way deserved to be included in this book of such historic and ground breaking women runners, many of whom were excluded for years just because they were women. Thankfully, nowadays women have the full rights in the running world as do men. Many really great runners are highlighted in this book.

    Read it for the individual women and the longer story
  

*by W***D on Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2016*

Great short profiles by a writer and marathoner with decades of experience. At a minimum, this needs to be in every school library so kids can use it to write papers for Women's History Month. But it is good reading both for the individual runners and for the slow increments of history in women's running. It starts with women running as unofficial entrants and ends up with half of all entrants being women. Quite a story.
