An intimate look at writing, running, and the incredible way they intersect, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running is an illuminating glimpse into the solitary passions of one of our greatest artists.

While training for the New York City Marathon, Haruki Murakami decided to keep a journal of his progress. The result is a memoir about his intertwined obsessions with running and writing, full of vivid recollections and insights, including the eureka moment when he decided to become a writer. By turns funny and sobering, playful and philosophical, here is a rich and revelatory work that elevates the human need for motion to an art form.

What I talk about when I talk about this book

This book is a meditation, an intimist journey over Murakami's passions: the writing, the running and the travels. All the views combined with running endorfin and the writing autocentrate skills invites anyone to run a novel and write a marathon at the same time.
I will start to run, i will start to write and god please help me to start to travel. Thanks Murakami for tips for all life long.
