In his dramatic race from San Francisco to New York, Marshall Ulrich clocked the third-fastest trans-American crossing to date and set new records in multiple divisions. He shares the gritty backstory, in Running on Empty, including his brushes with death, run-ins with the police, and the excruciating punishments he endured at the mercy of his maxed-out body. He reaches back nearly thirty years, when the death of the woman he loved drove him to begin running and the realization dawned that he felt truly alive only when pushed to the limits.--[book jacket].
