Book excerpt: More than 400,000 people complete a marathon in the United States each year. This book is about twelve of those runners. Why they run. What running has done for them-and to them. Their triumphs and their failures. My Running Club is not a "how to run a marathon" book. It is fiction, but it reveals the truth behind marathon training programs and the people who set the pace of their lives on the running trail. Alan Anderson has completed sixteen marathons, one ultra-marathon, and numerous half marathons, 10k races, and 5k races. He has coached marathon and half-marathon runners for a dozen years. He lives in Houston with his wife Betsy, who is also a long-distance runner.
