Long Run

Very inspirational but might have been a better short book. Really, really, really, really repetitive.

Long was in peak physical condition and then got hit by a bus while cycling through NYC, he survives astronomically low chances for survival only to be beset by justified depression at the achingly long road to recovery, athletic participation, and motivational speaking. Luckily the man who claims an inability to read a chapter of the Hardy Boys has a good ghost writer in Charles Butler for this memoir. QUIBBLE! Long has a vendetta against the union head who was the reason the illegal transit strike was on when the bus hit him. I'm pretty sure AAA rated bike infrastructure would have been a better protection. Intersections CAN be designed to be safer for peds and cyclists. Jus saying.
