Title: Running Home
Description: "A deeply moving and inspiring memoir about fathers and daughters, grief and renewal, adventure and obsession, and the power of running to change your life." -- From book jacket.

For more than a decade Arnold chased adventure around the world, reporting on extreme athletes who performed outlandish feats, until life on the thin edge of risk began to seem normal. She vowed to raise her daughters to be adventurous, too, but when her father died of cancer, she was forced to confront her own mortality.  Nearly paralyzed by fear and terrified she was dying, too, she turned to the thing that had always made her feel most alive: running. She ran to heal her grief, to find strength in her weakness... she ran to live. -- adapted from jacket
