Episode 173--Reviewing "Running to the Edge" by Matthew Futterman

This week, we reviewed our book of the quarter, "Running to the Edge" by Matthew Futterman. "Running to the Edge" is the story of Bob Larsen, who coached a ragtag group of runners to a U.S. cross-country championship in the 1970s, coached the UCLA track and cross-country teams through the 1980s and 1990s, and coached Meb Keflezighi for Meb's entire career. Despite our appreciation for Larsen and our enjoying Futterman's storytelling, we had mixed feelings about the book.
