Post on sports books is really good. What about movies. Touching the Void is coming out this month should be good. They had an article about it in this month's Outside.
I just got The Hard Road (2001 Net Zero Cycling Team) Really good. Read my review at triyoda.com
I'll just stick to Endurance sports type. Other ones (good):
Without Limits (Steve Prefontaine)
Fire on the Track (Steve Prefontaine documentary)
American Flyers (Bike Racing, with Kevin Costner) a little cheesy, but fun and you can get it in the bargain DVD bin for $6.00
Not so Good:
Triathlon, through the eyes of the elite. Boring!
Prefontaine (Jared Leto and Ed O'Neil) funny but its not a comedy!

"When I first had the opportunity to compete in triathlon, it was the chicks and their skimpy race clothing that drew me in. Everyone was so welcoming and the lifestyle so obviously narcissistic. I fed off of that vain energy. To me it is what the sport is all about."
