The 27th Mile

I found out last week that I will have an essay included in The 27th Mile; it's an anthology written by various runners and all proceeds will go to support the victims of the 2013 Boston Marathon. It is a great honor to be included in this anthology of great runners/writers. It will be published this summer. Please check it out!

This is such a great idea! The brilliant and talented Ryan W.
