具體描述
In 1982, having sold his jazz bar to devote himself to writing, Murakami began running to keep fit. A year later, he’d completed a solo course from Athens to Marathon, and now, after dozens of such races, not to mention triathlons and a dozen critically acclaimed books, he reflects upon the influence the sport has had on his life and—even more important—on his writing.
Equal parts training log, travelogue, and reminiscence, this revealing memoir covers his four-month preparation for the 2005 New York City Marathon and takes us to places ranging from Tokyo’s Jingu Gaien gardens, where he once shared the course with an Olympian, to the Charles River in Boston among young women who outpace him. Through this marvelous lens of sport emerges a panorama of memories and insights: the eureka moment when he decided to become a writer, his greatest triumphs and disappointments, his passion for vintage LPs, and the experience, after fifty, of seeing his race times improve and then fall back.
By turns funny and sobering, playful and philosophical, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running is rich and revelatory, both for fans of this masterful yet guardedly private writer and for the exploding population of athletes who find similar satisfaction in running.

##“跑步是孤獨的。騎自行車比跑步更孤獨。”像漂浮的朽木一樣遊泳我也是會的。所以我不如去修煉鐵人三項吧。 = =
評分##把跑步和人生需要的品質結閤起來，讀起來很激動和興奮
評分4小時23分的audio book，兩天給聽完鳥。給5星是因為這是唯一一本我知道村上在寫些什麼的書。
評分##跑步的時候反復聽， 不想跑的時候反復聽，沒力氣的時候反復聽，這本書最近簡直變成我的精神支柱。
評分##治愈係~~ 大愛裏麵很多名言，尤其是“in the long distance, the only opponent you have to beat is yourself, the way you used to be.”
評分##“I didn’t start running because somebody asked me to become a runner. Just like I didn’t become a novelist because somebody asked me to. And one day, out of the blue, I started to write a novel. And one day, out of the blue, I started to run——simply because I wanted to.”

評分##一本小書，如小口品嘗飯後甜點般讀完。這幾年讀過的第三本關於跑步的書；第一本村上先生的書。譯者行文流水，讀來完全沒有違和感。印象最深的還是那句：Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
評分##每隔一段時間讀一遍給自己打雞血，誰說心靈雞湯沒用我跟誰急
