  "A refreshingly frank book about the marathon trainer’s mindset." -Kirkus Reviews 
  "Was running a marathon with my wife a smart idea? Certainly not. We had two kids under the age of three and demanding jobs in tech. However, being smart was not my main concern. In our 4-year marriage, she'd been a rock. She nursed me through leukemia. She picked me up from rehab and drove me to AA. Now, she wanted to run the Disney Marathon. So be it. I signed up like two sports bras, extra supportive!"  
  Looks Like We're Running is a humorous story about failing badly and getting better. Can running save a person's life? Can it improve a marriage? Overcome an addiction? Each year, nearly 16 million Americans attempt a marathon. Nearly every one of them is just a regular person fighting to discover a better version of themself. Looks Like We're Running is for that person. It was written by that person. This book contains guidance on training, gear, nutrition and recovery, but most importantly, it is a testimony of the marathon's number one lesson: How to keep going. 
  Dustin Riedesel first attempted running three months after completing chemotherapy for leukemia. He started running seriously eight months later while in a rehab facility for alcohol abuse. Since running began, he lost weight, improved his marriage and friendships, earned freedom from addiction, had two children, bought a new home, received a promotion at work, and finally, wrote this book to serve as a companion for anyone seeking similar outcomes in their life. 
  Can moving your body for extended periods of time really give you all that? There's one sure-fire way to find out. Put on some shoes. Get out the door. Looks like you're running.

  For more than a decade, golf was dominated by one galvanizing figure: Eldrick "Tiger" Woods. But as his star has fallen, a new, ambitious generation has stepped up to claim the crown. Once the domain of veterans, golf saw a youth revolution in 2014. In Slaying the Tiger, Shane Ryan introduces us to the volatile, colorful crop of heirs apparent who are storming the barricades of this traditionally old-fashioned sport. As the golf writer for Bill Simmons's Grantland, Shane Ryan is the perfect herald for the sport's new age. In Slaying the Tiger, he embeds himself for a season on the PGA Tour, where he finds the game far removed from the genteel rhythms of yesteryear. Instead, he discovers a group of mercurial talents driven to greatness by their fear of failure and their relentless perfectionism. From Augusta to Scotland, with an irreverent and energetic voice, Ryan documents every transcendent moment, every press tent tirade, and every controversy that made the 2014 Tour one of the most exciting and unpredictable in recent memory.

  A rare glimpse of professional ballplayers, not as pitchers, hitters, managers, and coaches, but as dads and grandads.  
   
  Sons of major league baseball players grow up in a unique environment, not only because they are raised in part by professional athletes, but also because they are raised by the game itself. They come of age immersed in the distinct sounds and aromas of baseball. The locker rooms, the cinderblock-lined corridors beneath the stands, the dugouts, and the fields are the playgrounds of their youth.  
   
  In Sons of Baseball, Mark Braff interviews 18 men who share their exclusive stories, ballpark memories, and the challenges and rewards of having fathers whose talents enabled them to reach the pinnacle of their profession. Each chapter is devoted to one son talking about his experiences, from the poignancy of one son’s disclosure that his dad has not been able to acknowledge his son’s sexuality as a gay man, to the humor of another son absconding with the groundskeepers’ cart in Cleveland.  
   
  With a foreword by Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr. and interviews with the sons of beloved players such as Yogi Berra, Mariano Rivera, Roger Maris, Gil Hodges, and Larry Doby, Sons of Baseball provides a unique, well-rounded perspective on the lives of professional ballplayers and their families.
