Martyn Lawrence Bullard: Design and Decoration

&ldquo;Moving&hellip;emotionally rewarding&hellip;Foreman says that marathon running&mdash;or training even&mdash;remind you of the preciousness of every moment, moment after moment. &hellip;Of course, I&rsquo;m also a sucker for the Daddy-daughter stuff in the book.&rdquo;&mdash;Scott Simon, NPR Weekend Edition&ldquo;In Foreman&rsquo;s witty and endear&shy;ing chronicle, My Year of Run&shy;ning Dangerously, we follow his transformation from self-described couch potato to marathoner, then ultra-marathoner. You don&rsquo;t have to be a runner to understand&mdash;and feel&mdash;the blood, sweat and tears Foreman pours into his training and his first marathon with his daughter.&rdquo;&mdash;Bookpage&ldquo;Tom Foreman has one of the most unique, interesting and honest minds that I've ever encountered in journalism. His book captures so much of what makes him such a pleasure to call colleague and friend. Despite the truly ridiculous amount of running he describes, this book is really about so much more: family, relationships, career, change, and ultimately about making it all fit. It may or may not awaken the hidden runner in you, but it will bring you along for his hilarious and moving journey.&rdquo;&mdash;Jake Tapper, CNN&#160;  &#160; &ldquo;Tom Foreman has an ability to capture honest humor while talking about something as horrible and painful as exercise. I loved everything about this book except the running.&rdquo;&mdash;Jim Gaffigan &#160; &ldquo;Foreman demonstrates how he balances his passion for running with all else that is important in life. I&rsquo;ve interacted with thousands of runners throughout my career and I can say that Tom is one of the most passionate runners I&rsquo;ve met.&rdquo;&mdash;Meb Keflezighi, Olympic Silver medalist, Boston and NYC Marathon champion &#160; &ldquo;As a&mdash;don't laugh&mdash;basketball player, I understand full well Tom Foreman's mad desire to exert above his age. But his recital of the perils of long-distance running made me decide that turning the pages of this graceful and amusing saga was enough exercise for a summer day.&#160;Run&mdash;but only to your bookstore.&rdquo;&mdash;Harry Shearer"Even the author's long-suffering family had to admit at the end of the season that he was happier, and readers will enjoy running alongside him."&mdash;Kirkus
