Review
“Kristin Armstrong has inspired an entire generation of women to get out and live life like you mean it. Mile Markers is her quintessential work; it left this man reenergized to reach for the stars!” —Dean Karnazes, New York Times best-selling author and ultramarathoner“Kristin teaches us how the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other, no matter how long or how fast, can better connect us to ourselves and to those we love. She shows us how getting out the door for a run can solve our most difficult problems, temper a foul mood, and uplift our spirit.” —Deena Kastor, American record holder in the marathon and half-marathon and Olympic medalist“With Mile Markers, Kristin Armstrong switches the sun on a misty morning outing and beautifully illuminates the life lessons that make a run much more than just a workout.” —Kathrine Switzer, first woman to officially run the Boston Marathon and author of Marathon Woman“If you are in love with running, you will fall in love with this book. It is witty and profound, yet so down to earth that you'll find yourself wondering if she isn't part of your own running group . . . and truly she is. Her writing echoes our thoughts and experiences as mothers, daughters, friends, and sisters running together through the seasons of our lives.” —Jamie Allison, Founder & CEO Moms in Motion, Inc.

Read it more than once! Not a big Lance Armstrong fan, but... the ex wife wrote this well... easy to read. Good tips, and down to earth storyline makes this more motivating. Add to that the reality factor, and its a plus. Then, remember she runs for a living, and has had a not so average life, and that puts things in a new perspective. Still though, I have many books about running, and distance running, and next to Galloway's, this one is one of my favorites. Highly recommend, even if you don't plan to run that far.
I loved the short story format. One story a night then dream about running. Kristen is such a thoughtful, inspirational runner. I want to be more like her.
Love this book and as a runner it a perfect. Kristin shares her views in running and some struggles she's has which are entirely relatable and don't make me feel like I'm a crazy runner anymore.
I started running about 3 years ago and progressed into running by first 1/2 marathon last year for a total of 4 so far. I was never really sure why I actually started running but once I did - I was hooked! I am a wife and mother of 3 teenage boys and I discovered that running was the first thing I've done for just me since we started our family. I find myself relating to so many things that Kristin states in her book; running is spiritual, a stress reliever, exhausting, some runs are great others are just plain horrible, my day is better when I run, etc.I already know a handful of other runners that I want to share this book with in hopes that it speaks to them as much as it did to me!
Since this book is made up of Kristin Armstrong's blog posts it makes sense that some of the blog posts resonated with me more than others.The posts about how much she loves running with her friends and how running makes these relationships deeper and stronger really hit home with me. I totally understand that feeling. I also loved the posts about how as moms we are the biggest role models in our children's lives and if we never set goals, chase our dreams or share our passions they will never see our true selves or what we are capable of achieving.I did not enjoy the posts as much when she talked about how she's not a fast runner (a 3:35 marathon PR by the way). Speed is so relative and my best marathon time is almost 2 hours slower than hers. To me she is SUPER SPEEDY. I wanted to shout at her to stop putting herself down.Basically, this book is inspirational for women. I found many posts that will drive me to continue to improve in all areas of my life. I would recommend taking the ones that don't resonate with you with a grain of salt and just move past them.
The stories are written so well that I could relate to almost everyone.
I loved so much about this book! I loved that it was a series of blog posts which meant if I couldn't read for a week or more I wouldn't feel lost in a story line. I also lived and related to so many topics, I feel like I highlighted 70% of the book! I look forward to re-reading it again in some time!
First, I have to say this book says right in the title it is meant for women, so I don't take off points for feeling like I'm on the outside looking in because I'm a guy. There is some great stuff here for any runner.The main thing I'd tell anyone is that if you read Kristin Armstrong's "Mile Markers" blog on runnersworld.com you are not going to see anything that really jumps off the page. Indeed, some of the content looked familiar. After digging around the book I found some mouse print up front indicating some material had already appeared online.If you have not followed Armstrong's blog this is a great read for women. She is a gifted writer in her ability to speak to her audience.
