Reviews of An Honorable Run

"I read this book non-stop. It is extraordinarily well crafted, and a compelling read. Not one false note. Amazing performance. McCue has a subtle humor and a keen appreciation and even love for those who, with respect and passion, pursue their dreams and roles in life, whether fellow runners, coaches, or parents. This is not a tell-all book, filled with gossip about Ritz or the secrets of Wetmore's success, though you get hints along the way. It is simply one of the best books you will ever read. And re-read."

Mike Sandrock, Boulder Daily Camera

"McCue provides a script for a life which may not lead to an Olympic medal, but still includes a meaningful running component. The idea of "an honorable run" is a direct echo of the idea of "fighting the long defeat" which Tracy Kidder ascribes to Dr. Paul Farmer in Mountains Beyond Mountains."

Don McLean, Don's Diary

"I was simply very impressed and deeply moved by Matt's honesty and thoughtfulness, and by his deep affection for his coach and mentor, Coach Brown. When I was finished I wished there was more to read, and that's not the norm for me."
