  Pete Magill’s The Born Again Runner is a one-of-a-kind guide for everyone who wants to run but feels they can’t. 
   
  As a drug-addled young man, Pete Magill once found himself in the ER, with his body telling him to give up. Taking up running seemed impossible—but he willed himself to do it anyway. Magill went on to become one of the fastest masters runners ever, a multi-USA Masters Cross Country Runner of the Year, and a sought-after coach. Over a glowing (albeit hard-won) career, he has heard every excuse people use to stop running or never start—from achy knees and sore ankles, to advanced age and arthritis, to too many cigarettes or years on the couch. In every case, Magill’s best advice is to do what he did: Run anyway—at a pace and mileage that work.  
   
  Through inspiration, science, and anecdote, Magill gets runners out the door; through personal action plans, he sets them on the right path; and through the best exercises to protect and rehabilitate the body, he keeps them going—showing a way forward for new and sidelined runners who haven’t before realized how close they are to fun and pain-free running! 
   
  “Whether you’re just starting out as a runner or starting afresh, you can do no better than heed the guidance of running’s ultimate comeback kid, Pete Magill, as presented in The Born Again Runner.” —Matt Fitzgerald, award-winning co-author of Pain & Performance 
   
  “Myths are busted and excuses are denied. . . . It will be pretty difficult to deny Magill, so just get out there, start, and stay with your running regime.” —Portland Book Review

  Summary Bundle: Courage & Memoir includes Summary of Daring Greatly and Summary of Devil's Bargain. 
  Summary of Daring Greatly: 
  "If we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame can't survive." (Brené Brown) 
  It's within human nature to fear vulnerabilities and any sort of weakness, however, accepting them is the first step to grow stronger. The general vision of Daring Greatly is that even people with more vulnerabilities could easily be more successful than the rest if they recognize and accept them. 
  Summary of Devil's Bargain: 
  "What he wanted the media to cover, constantly and at length, was only one thing: Donald Trump." (Joshua Green) 
  The alliance of Trump and Bannon was too powerful and caught everyone off-guard. It was just the final phase of a big plan of political insurgency that had been building up silently in America for years. Bannon's scheme was well-thought and made Trump's extraordinary rise possible. 
  What if you could learn 3X more in 2X less time? How much faster could you accelerate to reach your goals?
