Best thing I’ve found is taking up a combat sport and sparring. After that everything is easy.

Didn't he make most of that stuff up anyway?
Mans Search for Himself by Rollo May is more relatable

Surprised nobody suggested "My Struggle" yet. Legendary book about a struggle that feels much like the last 6.2 in a marathon. Written by a dude while in prison.
These are great:
How Bad Do You Want It
The Sports Gene
Shoe Dog
and Bill Rodgers Marathon Man (despite the typos it was great, the publisher is at fault here)

Deena Kastor’s book wasn’t worth reading
Endure was incredibly boring and he uses Twitter as a source for goodness sake
Yes, he did. David Goggins is a fraud.
I don't like to read at all, but it is really necessary for development. DeLillo - End Zone was recommended to me

Xenophon, On Hunting with Dogs (Cynegeticus). I personally like the Tufts online version because it is translated the same as I read from a World Classics collection.
Here you have a man, Xenophon, an Athenian at birth, in 330 B.C., who is not only deriving a sport from survival and militaristic training but also concluding that sport can be used as a form of education.
Plato thought of gymnastik as a way to re-excite one's inner child at play. Aristotle, Plato's student, thought that physical education supplemented the three other parts of education: letters, numbers and arts. Together they formed a balance. Aristotle thought of actions as landing on a spectrum of deficient and excess. The goal was to take aim at the middle of that spectrum and be, as Plato also discusses, in moderation.
Xenophon, a student of Socrates (like Plato) went on to incorporate hunting as a form of education in the youth academy of future Spartiates (the agoge). However, the Spartiates physically trained in excess. This is something Aristotle warned against in his Politics treatise.
Why this book:
* this man is, in a way, an ancient athletic director as he wrote the Spartan Constitution which required training regimens for boys and gils
* you have a tie to cross country: cross country is derived from boys playing a game of Hares & Hounds in the 1830s in England. The scenario of "Rival Clubs" in Hares & Hounds (1 of three or four overall scenarios) is where modern xc team scoring stems from. In this book you have a man making training hounds to hunt hares; so there are deep philosophical concepts that you can draw from to help channel your inner hunter. These are excellent things to empower you
* this man doesnt come out and say it explicitly, but to write a sporting manual in meticulous detail of how to name, train and hunt with dogs, he sure must have loved those dogs. Much of what he describes in what makes a good hunting dog, should trigger thoughts and experiences with dogs you can also relate to
* virtue, think about virtue in the hunting context (what Xenophon alludes to) and what you consider virtue
This all puts you on a different plane than your competitors. I would consider it a leg up
