review 1: Книгата се чете бързо и е увлекателна. За мен не може да бие биографията на Скот Юрек, но все пак си заслужава да се прочете.Макар подобна литература да влиза в графата "модерна", смятам че има няколко несъмнени достойнства. "Тичай или умри" носи едно от тях. Книгата ни показва не само фиическите, но и духовните сили, които притежават истинските шампиони. И макар да не дава отговор как да намерим хармония между телесното и духовно... moreто, предлага интересен път към него.
review 2: Kilian Jornet traversed the Pyrenees when he was 10, with his parents. His love of nature, wild places and challenges shines through this story. He let's us know that he struggles with the challenges he puts his body through and how his mind overcomes. A good writer as well s a great ultra trail runner, skier, endurance athlete, he made me feel what he felt, see what he saw. Quote from the book sums up how he feels.'I am happy. I stop and rest for a moment, breathing hard, my hands on my knees. I am chasing no-one, and no-one is chasing me. I think how happiness isn't a destination but rather a path to follow, spending time along that way and postponing its inevitable end.' Loved it. less

Introspective meditations from an elite ultra-runner who sprints up and down mountains.
