Once a Runner captures the essence of what it means to be a competitive runner; to devote your entire existence to a single-minded pursuit of excellence. It has become one of the most beloved sports novels ever written.
Originally self-published in 1978 and sold at road races out of the trunk of the author's car, the book eventually found its way into the hands of high school, college, and postgraduate athletes all over the country. Reading it became a rite of passage on many teams, and tattered copies were handed down like sacred texts from generation to generation. It ranked as the number one most sought-after out-of-print book in the United States in 2007.
Once a Runner is the story of Quenton Cassidy, a collegiate runner at fictional Southeastern University whose lifelong dream is to run a four-minute mile. He is less than a second away when the political and cultural turmoil of the Vietnam War era intrudes into the staid recesses of his school's athletic department. After he becomes involved in an athletes' protest, Cassidy is suspended from his track team.
Under the tutelage of his friend and mentor, Bruce Denton, a graduate student and former Olympic gold medalist, Cassidy gives up his scholarship, his girlfriend, and possibly his future to withdraw to a monastic retreat in the countryside and begin training for the race of his life: a head-to-head match with the greatest miler in history. This book is a rare insider's account of the incredibly intense lives of elite distance runners; an inspiring, funny, and spot-on tale of one man's quest to become a champion.

讀後感
这是写给一个有过跑步经历的人的小说。跑步的人是孤独的，就像一个正在执行任务的忍者。他有着明确的目标，就是超越身体极限，到达一个新的速度或距离。通常他会很耐心，孤独的计划着逐步逼近目标。超越极限，实现目标后的那种成就感，如果你没有跑过步，你不会懂。
評分每个人一生都会经历过很多次跑步！ 有的时候是慢跑，有的时候是冲刺。 看过这本书，觉得很好，给你一种安静的充实幸福感。 首先想起的是村上春树君。 村上本来是一个体质很弱小的人，但是他几十年都坚持跑步，最后竟然达到可以参加职业马拉松大赛的水平。 一个人的潜能有多大，...
評分有两处纰漏。一是165页“他们倒是以一小时十五分的时间跑完了三十四公里”。这绝无可能，一万米世界纪录也不过26分左右。二是244页提到芬兰长跑名将帕沃·努尔米，脚注说“在第三届奥运会中获得九枚金牌和三枚银牌”，其实是三届，而非第三届
評分 評分卡西迪跑步语录： “关键不在于开始时能跑多快，而在于疲倦时能跑多快。” 跑步很像是一次人生的旅程。除了个别新生儿夭折之外，我们大多数人都没有败在起步上，而是败在了途中。就像书中说到的一样——“距离终点最遥远的不是第一圈，而是第三圈。第三圈是个缩影，但非关生...

kind of trite plot. a runner myself, i like reading all the books about running/great runners. the story is corny, but there are pieces shining out. the writing sounds amateur and kills the book. if you listen to the audio book, you will find the narrator knocked this book to the bottom of hell.

评分不好看。據說後半段會有意思一些，但我沒有堅持下去……
