About this listen
As a journalist whose career spans three decades, CNN correspondent Tom Foreman has reported from the heart of war zones, riots, and natural disasters. He has interviewed serial killers and been in the line of fire. But the most terrifying moment of his life didn't occur on the job - it occurred at home, when his 18-year-old daughter asked, "How would you feel about running a marathon with me?" My Year of Running Dangerously is Foreman's journey through four half marathons, three marathons, and one 55-mile race. What started as an innocent request from his daughter quickly turned into a rekindled passion for long-distance running - for the training, the camaraderie, the defeats, and the victories. Told with honesty and humor, Foreman's account captures the universal fears of aging and failure alongside the hard-won moments of triumph, tenacity, and going further than you ever thought possible.

Good book.
My daughter suggested this book. As a runner I felt that I was part of the story experiencing the ups and downs. Well written and enjoyed. Thank you.

Great Read
Great read for any runner or non-runner alike. I was able to empathize with much of his training and some of it had me laughing so hard I had to pull the car over and park. Thank you for sharing your journey!

His relationship with his family
l found the book interesting as l also am a runner..There were many points l could identify with. His relationships with his daughters and wife was the most interesting. He downplayed his past. Obviously he had a background in running most of his life..I found this part as a victim boring. I guess he called it living dangerously because of the ultra marathon training . To have run 4 marathons and an ultra. Obviously he is way above average health. It is a worthwhile overall.
