Running the Old Road in Yellowstone

“I love this story because it’s about being an explorer—a reminder that we can all do this, but most people never get the chance. We all just need a friend to get us moving.”—Bill Rodgers, 4x winner of Boston and NYC Marathons“This book is like a daily run on the same course. Each page turn is like a new day, on a familiar course, but the nuances discovered along the way are palpable. Each word was like skipping and skimming along a gnarly trail, always taking in the hazards, as well as the beauty, cautious not to miss anything, as each footfall could create a new memory or help us recall one from the past.”—Roy Pirrung, ultramarathon and long-distance runner
