Finally, Cam Levin's dad writes about running.
Seriously, Gladwell was a fast runner as a youth, so it is good to finally see what he has to say about running.
The New Yorker is a paid website, so you'll have to make a doctor appointment or something to read it.

Dont need to read it - Gladwell will state the obvious and make sound profound, as usual. Reminds me of when I used to smoke pot.

Yup. That hack has made a killing writing tepid pop science "airport books." Gullible Caucasians will buy into anything.
do you buy/own NOTHING and live in an empty apartment where you just stare at a wall? if not, you should tell us some of the stuff you are into so we can make fun of it. i'm sure people will think some of the stuff you read is written by hacks.

Malcolm is half Jamaican (Mom's side) and half Jewish (English father's side) and he grew up in Toronto. But he has now lived most of his adult life in the United States of Merca and writes books for our pleasure dissecting and simplifying complicated concepts for us. Much as Bill Bryson has done with a bit less humour (Bill's spelling not mine).

I run 3 times a day and read mostly 17th century religious texts.

I always knew you were a pansy.
He does a nice job comparing his own running experience and Salazar's. That's not as meaningless as it might sound. Worth the read.
