Description
January 2005. Following years of depression, ineffective medication, therapy that went nowhere, and a suicide attempt, Thompson was confined on the psych ward. One afternoon during an exercise break he experienced a sudden urge: Run. Through motion and immersion in the beauty of nature, Thompson finds a way out of the hell of depression and drug addiction. Step by step, mile by mile, his body and mind heal. Here he retraces the path that led him from despair to wellness. -- adapted from jacket
