Anyone who questions foobarbecue should read Alex's book 'Alone on the Wall'. It gives you a different perspective on him than this article.

1. Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen

It's a fun read, and got me inspired to run my first ultra marathon.

2. Alone on the Wall

Inspiring stories about this amazing rock climber Alex Honnold, as told by himself and one other experienced climber. You get a little insight into what makes him tick.

Seconded! Valley Uprising is worth watching (and available on Netflix in loads of countries, not just the US)

I just finished Alex Honnold's book (Alone on the Wall) and it's a fun read. Gives you a bit of backstory to the media frenzy that surrounds him at times.

In terms of videos, the Reel Rock film tour is amazing. They cover some really awesome climbs. And "Meru" is on Amazon Prime Video in a lot of countries (a short version was in Reel Rock one or two years ago).
