Running with Sherman
Running with Sherman is one of those special books that just makes you happy.
Sherman, an abused donkey adopted by Christopher McDougall and family, needs a task, and that task turns out to be joining the World Championship of burro running in Colorado.
In his inimitably engaging style, McDougall has taken the best of his two previous books–the personal stories of Born to Run and the history from Natural Born Heroes–and created the most enjoyable book I’ve read this year.
I laughed, I got teary, I smiled a lot. Sherman is my new hero!
PS: Meet Christopher McDougall here next Saturday, November 9th at 11am!
