5.0 out of 5 starsThis book is great!
By Kristina on December 5, 2007
Format: Paperback
I recently bought and read this book and I think it is great! It brings together two important parts of us as human beings--the physical and the spiritual. The author is an experienced runner himself and is also a theologian. Through this book he also shows that he is a great teacher. The book is well written. It is easy to read, but each paragraph has a lot of really interesting material and he includes questions to think about on your next run. So I would say this book is both practical and profound. All in all I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is a runner and who is interested in exploring the spiritual side of life.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat way to add to your enjoyment of running
By Bob Thomas on January 31, 2010
Format: Paperback
This is such a thoughtful book in so many ways that it is difficult for me to express its value. If I were a writer I might be able to convey the richness that Dr. Kay's insight has added to my running time and even into my overall enjoyment of life. Take the time to read this little book and use Dr. Kay's ideas to expand your depth of thinking, and sensing your spirituality as you run. The more I practice his suggestions, the more I appreciate what already was a very enjoyable sport. And since the author is a full time college professor, he knows how to teach, which makes it simple and pleasant to learn as we go. When running is more fun and more rewarding mentally and spiritually it becomes easier to do and the benefits of improved health of body and mind are just wonderful extras.
I hope I can encourage you to read this terrific book and I believe that the same kind of richness and satisfaction I experience will be added to your spiritual/running life as well.

5.0 out of 5 starsYou should learn the sacred art!
By F. Farrook on February 17, 2011
Format: Paperback
Although published awhile back, this book was an interesting read about the side of running that many athletes do not pay attention to that often. We might have moments of splendor while running, but this book helps us hone those moments to last even longer and to come alive no matter the distance covered or area you are running. A gem of a running book.

4.0 out of 5 starsPositive spirituality
By PAVEL MILICKA on January 31, 2011
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
It is positive approach to running spirituality as against negative (apophatic) in e.g. "Running the Spiritual Path". Good textbook for common reading or for a spiritual renewal.

5.0 out of 5 starsNice thoughts about spirituality and running
By Andreas Michaelides on July 2, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I read this book after I ran a couple of half-marathons and it did help me ease my way into the running mentality. Nice thoughts about spirituality and running.
Also if you want to check out my book Thirsty For Health I would really appreciate it.
Thank you and have a healthy day!
Regards
