Running Outside the Comfort Zone

Running is much more than just road racing! Humor columnist and runner Susan Lacke spent a year exploring running in its many shapes and forms. From races with giant cheese wheels to wife-carrying to naked racing to climbing the dark stairwells of the Empire State Building, Lacke's brave forays and misadventures are chronicled in funny and even embarrassing detail. Part self-discovery, part history, and part running love story, Bibs, Blisters, and Bare-Naked lays bare the brash, the bold and the very human side of America's favorite all-comers sport.
