Publisher's Synopsis
"Growing up is easy. Growing old is what we're never taught to do." Energetic, transparent, and undaunted, Kim Lane takes us on a run for her life in The Marathon Years. This collection chronicles her passage from "the bridge between was and will be" as she unflinchingly takes on motherhood, marathoning, and her personal milestones and missteps along the way. Lane dives headlong into examining untethered family ties, while pushing her body to new (and sometimes frightening) limits. In her witty and heartbreaking style, she examines love, teaching, struggle, endurance, and acceptance. Lane's is a voice for runners and readers alike--a joyful, engaging companion at the crossroads on this knotty trail of life.
