Book Description
My name is Derek. I used to feel like I was just another person in the world. Living life, day by day, following my routine and letting fate take me where I was supposed to go. I decided to change that by running. I would be the one making my own path and challenging myself with new goals and new adventures. I started feeling much better and gained a lot of confidence, so I set the goal of running 25 races in 2012 and writing a book about my experiences. Each chapter describes how I was feeling, some of the events and how my attitude changed throughout the year. I used to be shy and unsure of myself about running and going through my daily routine. Now I get out and take on the world. I'm the guy you'll find running next to you, encouraging you to keep going, singing, doing back flips and getting the crowd riled up. The book mentions 15 stories about my struggles and triumphs, summing everything up in the final chapter. Running is how I began to find confidence and motivation. This book was written to help you find your passion in life and push you to live the best life you can.
