Peter Sagal , the very fast-on-his-feet host of the weekly NPR news quiz “Wait Wait … Don’t Tell Me!” and the author of a new meditative memoir, “The Incomplete Book of Running,” was half an hour late for an appointment to buy running gear on a recent Tuesday morning. And all because Mr. Sagal, in town to tape a pair of shows at Carnegie Hall, had gone for a run. Which is to say that somewhere in Downtown Brooklyn Mr. Sagal got a little bit lost. After a phone call to apologize and reschedule, followed by another brief detour for a shower and breakfast, Mr. Sagal, newsboy cap on his head, arrived at Urban Athletics on the Upper East Side. “Like a lot of people, I find a running shoe that works and I stick with it,” said Mr. Sagal, 53.
