Running Blind: My Marathon Book
My Marathon Book
Yahoo! My new book is finished. It’s called “Running Blind: The Journey of a Blind Runner Training For Her First Marathon”
I got it done just before I ran the 4th annual Missoula Marathon last month. The marathon I finished in July was actually my second time running the full one, cause after I ran the inaugural Missoula Marathon, I’ve run the half marathon the past two years.
When I was finished with my first marathon in 2007, I was convinced that I had no need to put myself through that torture ever again.
It wasn’t until I started writing my book about my first marathon experience that I decided to run another full marathon, so that’s how I ended up running it again a few weeks ago.
But let me tell you about my book – I’m so excited! “Running Blind” is all about my first marathon experience. It includes everything from what lead up to my decision to run a full marathon, to the long months of dedicated and consistent training and finally to the running of the full 26.2 mile marathon, including all of the many lessons I learned along the way. It’s full of great stories and the humorous tales of my journey.
I hope you’ll buy a copy for yourself, for friends and family, and be sure to tell everyone you know, too. ’Cause it’s not just for runners – it’s for anyone who enjoys a great read. We all have obstacles to overcome in our life; this is just my story of how I took on the challenge of one of mine.

[...] It was a warm, sunny day, but the sun seemed less harsh, the light almost diffused, and I never got overheated like I did during my first marathon when we had that record-breaking heat wave. (You can read all about that adventure in my book: Running Blind.) [...]
