Description
Peter Sagal's memoir about running is a deeply personal and affecting story. On the verge of turning forty, Sagal began running seriously and went on to complete fourteen marathons and log tens of thousands of miles across the United States and the world. Through his experiences, Sagal reflects on the emotional experience of running, body image, and the bonds created between strangers and friends. He also writes about the challenges he faced, including charity races in unusual circumstances and running as a guide for visually impaired runners. With humor and humanity, Sagal explores what running means to him and others, revealing a book that is both winning and affecting.
