He also details the writing process, inspirations, and how running shapes character and success.Book Summary:From middle school miles and marathons to some of the most demanding ultramarathons in the world – including the Moab 240, Sangre de Cristo 100, Bear 100, Bighorn 100, and more – Beyond the Singletrack follows a journey shaped by endurance, love, failure, and persistence.But this isn’t just a collection of race stories. Each chapter reflects on mental health, identity, relationships, and even the meaning of life. Running has a way of challenging how we set goals, define success, and respond to adversity. It exposes who we are and what it means to pursue something that matters. This book asks the questions from the trail.I hope these words stay with you beyond the singletrack. I hope they shape how you live, think, and show up in life. I hope they challenge you to refine your values, and ultimately, to become a better person through the pursuit of what you love. This is more than a sport. This is how you learn to live.Pre-order your signed copy here: https://www.journeyruncoaching.com/bookSend us Fan Mail Journey Running LinksWebsite: JourneyRunCoaching.comEmail: [email protected]: Journey_RunningFacebook: Journey_RunningTiktok: JourneyRunningNourish Referral Link: https://www.usenourish.com/providers/stefan-schuster?referralSource=Nourish+dietitian&referralName=Stefan+Schuster&utm_source=Nourish_dietitian&utm_term=Stefan_Schuster
