Summary:
At age 38, the author's substance abuse, nutrition-free diet, and dire lack of sleep landed him in the ER, where a doctor said that at the rate he was going, he wouldn't live to see his son's high school graduation. That's when Magill became a born again runner...Over time his new "addiction" set him free from the old ones. His health dramatically recovered, his mood lifted, and he went on to become one of the fastest-ever masters runners and a sought-after coach (From back cover).
