I like barefoot running. Whenever I meet another barefoot runner, they always tell me that I need to read the book "Born to Run". I have no interest in reading "Born to Run". I don't need to read a 250 page book on barefoot running. Just give me a 5 page synopsis of why barefoot running is good. I don't need to read a whole book about it.
Got it.

Oh well, I tried. A significant part of the book is recipe oriented. There are lots of little interesting side bar snippets that are quite interesting.
