Dean Karnazes has pushed his body and mind to inconceivable limits, from running in theshoe-melting heat of Death Valley to the lung-freezing cold of the South Pole. He's raced andcompeted across the globe and once ran 50 marathons, in 50 states, in 50 consecutive days.
In A Runner's High, Karnazes chronicles his return to the Western States 100-Mile EnduranceRun in his mid-fifties after first completing the race decades ago. The Western States, infamousfor its rugged terrain and extreme temperatures, becomes the most demanding competition ofhis life, a physical and emotional reckoning and a battle to stay true to one's purpose.Confronting his age, wearying body, career path and life choices, we see Karnazes as we neverhave before, raw and exposed. A Runner's High is both an endorphin-fuelled page-turner and alove letter to the sport from one of its most celebrated ambassadors.
