The story of Mr. Parry's Endurance Challenge has been published in a new book, now available in both e-version and paperback. Endurance Planet's Big Book of Bravado "Tales of Extreme Endurance" can be ordered through http://www.amazon.com/Endurance-Planets-Big-Book-Bravado/dp/1461155673/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1320156261&sr=1-1
Check it out if you are looking for some inspiring stories about running and other endurance events. The chapter I wrote - Sharing the Passion for Running - begins on page 91 and tells about my motivation for doing Mr. Parry's Endurance Challenge.
