After a decade-long addiction to crack cocaine and alcohol, Charlie
Engle hit rock bottom after a near-fatal six-day binge ended in a
hail of bullets. Then he found running, and it has helped keep him
sober, focused and alive. He began to take on the most extreme
endurance races, such as the 155-mile Gobi March, and developed a
reputation as an inspirational speaker. However, after he made the
documentary Running the Sahara, narrated by Matt Damon, which
followed him on a 4500-mile crossing of the desert and helped raise
$6 million, he was sent to prison after failing to complete his
mortgage application properly. It was while he was in jail that he
became known as 'The Running Man' as he pounded the prison yard,
and soon his fellow inmates were joining him, finding new hope
through running. Now, in his brilliantly written and powerful
account, Engle tells the story of his life and how running has
brought him so much pleasure and peace. Like such classics as Born
to Runor Running with the Kenyans, this is a book that anyone who
has ever found solace in the freedom of running will enjoy.
