At the age of nine, Sally Whitney's marathon journey began. At an Arizona ranch, Sally Whitney was suddenly thrown headfirst from a runaway horse. Landing on her head, she suffered a traumatic brain injury resulting in partial paralysis on the left side of her body and a three-week coma. She struggled, unsuccessfully, to reenter the social life of a ten-year-old. Still in social isolation many years down the road, she rehabilitated the best she could on her own. One of her efforts to continue her lifelong road of rehab, and due to the fitness craze in 1982, she found herself in the presence of a nearby gym. As Sally limped into the gym, the manager offered her entry blank for the Phoenix 10K Race being held the very next day. Sally took the entry blank as a courtesy. The pamphlet's heading caught her attention, thus presenting her with another challenge. It read, "RUN, JOG, WALK, OR CRAWL: THE PHOENIX 10K." She thought, What the heck, I can crawl. Doors she opened before this conquest""getting a job, for instance""and other triumphs taken for granted by many became huge barriers for the brain-injured. Sally, though, couldn't or wouldn't back down from life's challenges. Besides being a thriving member of her Senior Citizen Independent Living Apartment Complex, she continues after thirty-six years to actively participate in 5K walks to the cheers of many in the Phoenix area. In 2013, she was admitted to the Arizona Runners Hall of Fame. Sally has written a book explaining how she used her courage to enter adulthood. It is also her desire to give if only a glimmer of hope to those who need to hear that when the going got tough, the tough got tougher and took life one small stride at a time.

The author, a computer science professor diagnosed with terminal cancer, explores his life, the lessons that he has learned, how he has worked to achieve his childhood dreams, and the effect of his diagnosis on him and his family.

So, this is it. My whole journey around post-Civil War III Boston, from start to finish. All you’re ever gonna see of it, anyway. I hope you like stories about evil scientists, powerful people convinced they know what’s best for everyone, and the stupid kids with a stack of chips on their shoulders who get roped into trying to undo all their hard work. Let’s see… There’s some romance, I guess. Spoiler alert; most of it ends badly. Some mystery at the start, but just take a minute to think about the worst-case scenario for how high up any conspiracy could go and you get the idea. Action, too. I get beat up a lot, but try to give as good as I get. The body count could go either way, really. Anyway, I’m Claire. Wanna see me stumble around trying to get my life back? This book would be how. Have fun with that. I guess somebody should.
