  Racing Against Time is the inspiring true story of Jeff Weiss's incredible transformation in midlife. At 48 years old, out of shape and searching for new purpose, Weiss took on his first 10K-an event that would spark a profound personal evolution. What began as a simple challenge soon turned into an extraordinary journey of endurance, perseverance, and self-discovery. Within a decade, he pushed beyond perceived limits, becoming an Ironman and ultramarathoner, proving that age is no barrier to strength and ambition. 
  Kirkus calls Racing Against Time: “An engaging and reflective life journey that captures the grit, grace, and quiet triumphs of endurance sports.”  It compares Racing Against Time to one of the great running books of recent years: “The memoir’s honest reflections on physical challenges and mental resilience resonate alongside classics like Haruki Murakami’s What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, blending the physical demands of sport with introspective growth.”   
  “If you’re looking for inspiration and motivation, Racing Against Time will get you going!” 
  New York Times Bestselling Author and legendary ultramarathoner Dean Karnazes 
  “Part memoir and all inspiration, Racing Against Time has it all: family, life, midlife transformation, tragedy with triumph, and, thankfully, a whole lot of UltraRunning.  I’m stoked about another book from Jeff, and I think you will be too.”   
  Travis Macy, author of The Ultra Mindset: An Endurance Champion’s 8 Core Principles for Success in Business, Sports, and Life. 
  “Weiss’s story illustrates the power and joy of mid-life transformation.”   
  Chip Conley, bestselling author of Learning to Love Midlife and Founder, Modern Elder Academy

  In "The Green Arch," mountaineer and author John Long offers vivid descriptions of ascending the west face of Tahquitz Rock--a granite, 8,846-foot-tall rock formation located on the high western slope of the San Jacinto mountain range in Southern California--as a teenager with his childhood climbing friends. 
   
  John Long (born July 21, 1953) is an American rock climber and author. A skilled free climber, Long popularized "free soloing" (climbing with no rope) during his high school days out at Joshua Tree National Park, first introducing John Bachar to the practice in 1974 with their now fêted ascent of Double Cross, at Joshua Tree. Long's many climbing feats include the first one-day ascent of the most sought after rock climb in North America, the 3,000 foot Nose route on El Capitan, on Memorial Day, 1975, with Jim Bridwell and Billy Westbay. The following year, partnered with Dale Bard, Long made the second one-day ascent of El Cap via the West Face, in the remarkable time of five hours. He followed this with blitz ascents of Leaning Tower, Washington Column, Half Dome and Ribbon Falls, precipitating the modern speed climbing movement so popular today, both in Yosemite Valley and beyond. 
   
  Gary Telles has been narrating audiobooks for the past ten years. A veteran stage actor, he has performed classical, contemporary and original theatre across the country, in addition to appearing on television, radio and CD-ROM.
