What I Talk About When I Talk About Running - Haruki Murakami

This book is about running and also about writing.  I used a long time ago to think I could write and more recently I thought that I could run.  This book is on the one hand very inspiring and makes me want to do both of those things but on the other hand makes me realise why I'll never really be able to do either.  Murakami suggests that the key is single minded focus.  I have more of a constantly moving on to new ideas and never really sticking with any of them sort of mind.

This is a really readable and enjoyable little book.

7/10
