Born to Run is a hybrid non-fiction of investigative journalism, a journey to self-discovery and an exploration of the evolution of modern running. I love reading non-fiction about topics I previously knew nothing about and I found the chapters on ultramarathons and the development of the running shoe to be pretty interesting. But I found the writing style to be quite dramatic and exaggerated like McDougall expects everyone else to be as automatically passionate and flabbergasted by these running discoveries as he is.
