Runner's World How to Make Yourself Poop: And 999 Other Tips All Runners Should Know

Readers describe this book as a funny, practical, and very runner-specific guide rather than a pure gag gift. Reviewers on personal book review blogs say it compiles useful, easy-to-scan advice on common running problems like digestion, hydration, recovery, and other day-to-day concerns. One reviewer called it a well-rounded read that taught them things they later shared with friends, while another noted it works as both a novelty title and a genuinely useful runner handbook. Mentions from Runner’s World-related coverage and podcast appearances reinforce that the content is meant to address real training and race-day issues, especially the less glamorous ones runners deal with. Overall, the strongest theme is that people are surprised by how practical it is beneath the humorous title.
