Description

In this thrilling memoir, an elite ultrarunner takes on the Appalachian Trail in a 46-day attempt to break its speed record, pushing north through relentless terrain, exhaustion, injury, and uncertainty. Along the way, the journey becomes far more than a solitary test of endurance as his wife, friends, mentors, fellow runners, and supportive strangers help sustain him through the trail’s most punishing miles. Blending vivid adventure writing with candid reflections on ambition, relationships, community, and personal transformation, the book offers an inspiring portrait of what it takes to pursue an extraordinary goal—and the people who make it possible.
