Once a Runner

[ericjoe]

I got the bright idea that I would get my 14 year son the book "Once a Runner" as an inspiration for him to continue running. (He is freshman running CC at Fort Hill this year) I thought I would enjoy reading the book as well as everyone raves about it. Amazon doesn't have it and the existing used copies are selling for like $75-$150! The hardcover version is coming out in the Spring, but I would like to have him read it over the winter. Anyone know where this book can be purchased for maybe $30 or less?

From what I understand, the book has only been printed a handful of times since it was first published, and each time they didn't print nearly enough copies for demand. I guess that would explain why even the used copies are priced so high. It's just a hard book to get your hands on easily (and cheaply). I apologize I don't know where to get it for under $30, unless somebody is selling it on eBay, which is no guarantee that it will go for $30 or less.
