Description
In his mid-forties, Matt Fitzgerald earns an extraordinary chance to train alongside elite runners at Northern Arizona Elite during one transformative summer, preparing for the Chicago Marathon while testing the limits of his own potential. With vivid portraits of Olympic hopefuls, punishing workouts, and generous self-deprecating humor, he offers an intimate look at the discipline, sacrifice, and camaraderie behind professional distance running. Along the way, the narrative explores endurance-training philosophies, the science of performance, and the often-overlooked power of motivation, perception, and mental resilience. Both a compelling personal experiment and an inspiring meditation on what athletes can achieve, the book invites runners of every level to reconsider what “going all the way” might mean.
