North

As I listened to Scott Jurek's 'North', I found myself swept up in the author's infectious enthusiasm and the stark beauty of the Appalachian Trail. The alternating narration with Jenny Jurek adds a touching intimacy to the story, and Scott's dry wit provides much-needed levity in the face of his grueling training regime. However, I sometimes found myself wishing for more detailed insights into Jurek's psychological preparation for the run – a crucial aspect of endurance sports that, while touched upon, remains somewhat elusive. Still, the production values are top-notch, and Scott's smooth narration makes the audiobook an enjoyable listen.
