George A. Sheehan, M.D., was running best-loved writer and speaker. Before he died a few days shy of his 75th birthday, George said, "My daughter was asked if her father was disturbed about his cancer. She said, 'Oh, he loves it. He talks about it all the time.'" Cancer focused George Sheehan. Suddenly he found himself thinking about issues and personal situations that had been on the back burner. This book by his longtime friend and editor will enrich those millions of people who were touched by Dr. Sheehan's lifetime of running and writing, and will reach a new generation with his insights and inspiration.

This book reminds me why I love running,
By Richard Luna (Buford, GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Did I Win? (Paperback)
I started this book on an airplane and couldn't put it down. In this book, Joe Henderson has written and collected stories of George Sheehan's life and passion... running. I was struck by how much I could relate, as a recreational runner, to the experiences, thoughts, and struggles of another runner. Joe Henderson takes you from laughing at your own competitiveness to quietly weeping at the shared joy of being able to compete at all. His deep friendship with Dr. Sheehan (a running icon) is woven through every chapter. As you read, you are reminded that relationships are the true reward of life. You vow to appreciate the people in your life who help you dream, and who willingly prop you up to face each day as it comes. I highly recommend this book.
