The 27th Mile - a book benefiting the One Fund

The 27th Mile is a new anthology full of articles, stories, and poems about running and runners that extol the spirit that first got us out on the roads to run, that brought us to Boston on a sunny spring day, and that will bring us back to Hopkinton next year.

All proceeds from sales of The 27th Mile will go to The One Fund Boston to support the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing. The book is $12.99 for the paperback and $4.99 for ebooks.

You can help by doing two things:

  1. Tell your friends about the book! Facebook/Twitter/blogs/etc... It's all good!
  2. Buy a copy of the book (maybe more than one - it makes a great gift!)
The 27th Mile includes a mix of fiction and non-fiction contributed by a wide range of talented writers who run. They're marathon champions and weekend warriors, ultramarathon racers and fitness joggers, running magazine pros and bloggers, best-selling novelists and indie publishing standouts, people like Amby Burfoot, Lawrence Block, Kathrine Switzer, and many more. 

It's a great book for everyone who, even as they eat dinner with their family, put in another eight hours at work, or sit and read this book, have already planned when they'll go out for their next run. You will enjoy it!
