The Longest Race: Inside the Secret World of Abuse, Doping, and Deception on Nike's Elite Running Team
Kara Goucher
At its core, this book is about power. Historically, stories like Kara’s (on Nike elite running team) get swept under the rug, and that seems to be precisely what Nike attempted to do. The company has felt so threatened by Kara’s claims against Nike coach Alberto, that it has allegedly spent millions of dollars to fight them.
