A brief review of each of the books I read in the last month. Ultramarathon Man: confessions of an all-night runner - Dean Karnazes 4.5/5 Another fascinating and motivating read by Karnazes. The author tells anecdotes of some of his most harrowing ultra endurance events and illustrates his ability to continue putting one foot in front of the other. I would recommend this read if you are at all interested in endurance, resilience, or the limits of the human body. Blueprint: build a bulletproof body for extreme adventure in 365 days - Ross Edgley 4/5 This book is based predominantly around periodasation, a concept from exercise science which utilised load management to optimise different training cycles. Some other important exercise concepts are weaved in with fascinating anecdotes. If you have an interest in enhancing your training, have a read.
