When Nicholas Thompson runs, mind and matter briefly become one, a physical activity becomes metaphysical! That’s how he describes it in his great new book, “The Running Ground.” The book isn’t just for runners — I loved the way he shows how prioritizing things that allow us to be in the moment and connect with ourselves (as he does through running), can be used to get through other difficult challenges. | Arianna Huffington

There are a few reasons I run without music. The first is that it's meditative. A run is one of the few times in my day where I can just let my mind wander. The second is about performance. Getting faster and more efficient at running is actually quite neurological. You have to focus in order to get better, and music distracts from the learning process. Also, there are few things better than listening to birds chirping on a morning run. That's absolutely worth unplugging for. I had a wonderful t

The book I've spent the past five years writing, The Running Ground, comes out next week. It's about my time in the sport. But more important, it's about how running can offer insight into some of the most important things in life: pain, recovery from trauma, discipline, and what we inherit from our parents and pass to our children. What I want most is for people who care deeply about these things to read it. So I'm going to be giving away 250 free, signed copies. If you’d like one, just fill ou
