{"product_id":"2940149240111","title":"More, Better, Quicker @","description":"This work is an autobiographical account. It is quite simply, a book that begins with my inevitable fall. From an addiction to tobacco, alcohol, amphetamines, pornography and food, I had a complete mental collapse at age thirty-seven. I had to rebuild from nothing. I had pushed away my family, been through four divorces and had little (outside of an impressive collection of Conan the Barbarian merchandise) to show for my time on Earth. I had literally reached my end. \u003cbr\u003eIn my path to rebuild, redefine and rekindle a semblance of self-worth, I directed my addictive personally and OCD into running. Counselling had failed, and faith alone had come up wanting. I needed to find strength within. With running, I had truly found a workable rehabilitation.\u003cbr\u003eI managed, along my path to ultra-running, to make virtually every fundamental mistake. I was alone in these decisions –I really had no idea how to run. Running seems to be an inherent skill-set, like walking upright. It took me years to correct, research and replicate my style into a viable form. \u003cbr\u003eThis book is not a history of running, nor is it a manual of running styles. It is a book about one guy who managed to rebuild a shattered life through miles of trials. It details those novice mistakes, poor judgment calls and tragic errors that most runners encounter along their own winding paths. \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Dog Ear Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47108982112496,"sku":"2940149240111","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149240111_p0.jpg?v=1763721187","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149240111","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
