"Its a valuable book for all aspiring young runners that gives an understanding of what it takes to be successful." Marty Liquori, Member, Running Hall of Fame
"Its a joy to read Running With the Legends and to indulge in its expansive treatment of some of runnings pantheon. As one who lives the life he describes, Sandrock is a natural to write this book."
Scott Douglas Former Editor, Running Times
"I feel I have 21 new friends in the running community. Its as if Ive watched them compete and been right next to them through their triumphs and disappointments. When I have a question about my own running career, I can just open Running With the Legends, read a chapter, and my question will be answered."
Gwyn Coogan 10,000-meter Olympian, 1992; Twin Cities Marathon winner, 1995
