Synopsis
Originally self-published in 1978, and sold from the trunk of author John Parker's car, this cult favorite has now been steadily jogging through the hands and minds of delighted readers for more than 30 years. The story concerns a track star who is less than one second away from achieving his dream of a four-minute mile when the Vietnam War interrupts his athletic career. Eventually, he makes his way to a secluded retreat where he begins an intense training routine as he prepares to run the most important race of his life. Parker's evocative descriptions of the adrenaline rush of running and the psychology of a race have become legendary among runners, who have long been waiting for this classic to come back in print.
