Episode 96: Matt Fitzgerald on Suffering, Love, and why Life is a Marathon

You're about to listen to Strength Running's first live show with author Matt Fitzgerald. If you're not familiar with Matt, he's written more than 20 books about sports nutrition, endurance, running, and the marathon including my favorites, The Endurance Diet, Brain Training, Racing Weight, and Diet Cults.

This was recorded in front of a live audience at the Tattered Cover bookstore in Denver, Colorado.

Matt's latest book is a memoir called Life is a Marathon that chronicles his career as a coward when it comes to the suffering that inevitably accompanies endurance running. But he learns to overcome that suffering, and in doing so discovers the person he wants to become, for himself and for his wife Nataki who has severe bipolar disorder.

It's a very different type of book about running that I highly recommend, especially if you want a moving read that isn't heavy on training jargon.
