Kimiecik explores the world of aging, training, and performing through a self-experimental, self-reflective lens— merging science, mythology, and performance psychology. On his heroic journey, Kimiecik talks to aging experts, scientists, top-performing athletes, and the ghost of legendary Steve Prefontaine. Kimiecik's keen observations of everyday living and irreverent style take him on a journey to find the hero within. The result is a fascinating, inspiring tale about how the life as an athlete can serve as a motivational metaphor for feeling alive and achieving nearly anything.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 232mmItem Length: 154mmItem Width: 12mmItem Weight: 249gRelease Year: 2009 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
