Run the Song is a fascinating blend of music, movement, and self-discovery, written by a music critic who trades his desk for the running trail. Ben Ratliff takes readers on a unique journey as he runs through the Bronx and beyond, using motion to deepen his understanding of music. From jazz to punk, soul to string quartets, his playlists are as varied as the paths he treads.

This book feels like a conversation with a friend who’s passionate about both running and music, inviting you to see—and hear—the world differently. It’s an introspective and refreshing take on how movement can shape how we connect with sound.
