HarperCollins Embrace the Suck
Trade Review"A book that seemed to be about tough-minded, solitary self-improvement for masters-of-the-universe types turned out to be a story about sharing, community, and love. That's right! ...Turns out in sports, according to Madden, winning isn't everything: It still matters how you play the game." -- Alex Gibney, Academy Award-winning writer and director of Taxi to the Dark Side "Surprisingly personal and compelling...Madden's epiphanies are genuine, and well rendered... He may be subpar as an athlete. He's far, far above that as a writer." -- SportsIllustrated.com "The numerous workout anecdotes will entertain the CrossFit faithful, but Madden's well-written personal narrative may appeal to a more general fitness audience." -- Booklist "Even if you've never lifted a kettlebell, you'll be fascinated by Madden's view of the challenges and psychology behind the phenomenon." -- Self Magazine "Stephen Madden's engaging, open, and funny book about how it changed his life-but kept him resolutely who he is-did away with all that: He finds the human side of the sport, the activity, and the community. A perfect introduction to a worldview that can change yours." -- Will Leitch, founder of Deadspin, contributing editor for New York magazine, and author of God Save the Fan and Are We Winning? "Madden's entertaining and inspiring fitness memoir is ultimately about life, love, and so much more." -- Reader's Digest

Crown Barefoot Running
Book Synopsis How could something we have for free—our bare feet—be better for running than $150 shoes? The truth is that running in shoes is high-impact, unstable, and inflexible. Shoes promote a heel-centric ground strike, which weakens your feet, knees, and hips, and leads to common running injuries. In contrast, barefoot running is low-impact, forefoot-centric, stable, and beneficial to your body. It encourages proper form and strengthens your feet in miraculous ways. When you run in shoes, you not only risk developing poor form, but you also hinder the natural relationship with the ground that running facilitates. Barefoot running restores the delightful sensory and spiritual connections to the earth that you were meant to experience. Barefoot Running offers the only step-by-step direction runners need at any age to overcome injuries, run faster than ever, and rediscover the pure joy of running. Once you tear off you
