Book Reviews of From Fairbanks to Boston: 50 Great U.S. Marathons
Book Review: Great Book for Runners!
Summary: 5 Stars
From Fairbanks to Boston is a great read for someone who has never run a marathon (like me). I loved the different personal story of each marathon, and it was motivating to read the experiences of so many first time
marathoners. If you are a runner, then the book can also be your preview guide to the layout and the organization of each marathon.
