Once a Runner captures the essence of what it means to be a competitive runner; to devote your entire existence to a single-minded pursuit of excellence. It has become one of the most beloved sports novels ever written.
Originally self-published in 1978 and sold at road races out of the trunk of the author's car, the book eventually found its way into the hands of high school, college, and postgraduate athletes all over the country. Reading it became a rite of passage on many teams, and tattered copies were handed down like sacred texts from generation to generation. It ranked as the number one most sought-after out-of-print book in the United States in 2007.
Once a Runner is the story of Quenton Cassidy, a collegiate runner at fictional Southeastern University whose lifelong dream is to run a four-minute mile. He is less than a second away when the political and cultural turmoil of the Vietnam War era intrudes into the staid recesses of his school's athletic department. After he becomes involved in an athletes' protest, Cassidy is suspended from his track team.
Under the tutelage of his friend and mentor, Bruce Denton, a graduate student and former Olympic gold medalist, Cassidy gives up his scholarship, his girlfriend, and possibly his future to withdraw to a monastic retreat in the countryside and begin training for the race of his life: a head-to-head match with the greatest miler in history. This book is a rare insider's account of the incredibly intense lives of elite distance runners; an inspiring, funny, and spot-on tale of one man's quest to become a champion.
具體描述
讀後感
说真的，这本书的确像很多人说得那样些许无聊，但是有些东西还是值得去换位体会——比如奔跑。 每个人上学的时候都会绕操场一圈一圈的跑，就拿我自己来说，有时候我不认真跑是因为我从不把它当做一种使命，只是甩甩胳膊动动腿儿的过程，当然，这也因为我并不是一位跑者。 书中...
評分 評分说实话，这个故事讲得真是不怎么样 一个跑者，在前辈帮助下，突破自己超越对手 大概就是这样吧 但作者应该是懂跑步的 他对交叉训练的那段描述，相当经典 当然，最后那段赛跑 过程的描述也相当赞 自己、对手、观众，整个过程中的心理、动作，还有变化 所以，还是值得看的 下一步...
評分这是写给一个有过跑步经历的人的小说。跑步的人是孤独的，就像一个正在执行任务的忍者。他有着明确的目标，就是超越身体极限，到达一个新的速度或距离。通常他会很耐心，孤独的计划着逐步逼近目标。超越极限，实现目标后的那种成就感，如果你没有跑过步，你不会懂。

kind of trite plot. a runner myself, i like reading all the books about running/great runners. the story is corny, but there are pieces shining out. the writing sounds amateur and kills the book. if you listen to the audio book, you will find the narrator knocked this book to the bottom of hell.
