Marathon, O'Donnell, a nineteen-year-old college student, was left

empty and broken. In the aftermath of the bombing he not only struggled

with the trauma of the events, but also found that terrorism had

stolen his passion for running. Unable to find healing in his conventional

life, O'Donnell embarked on an inspiring and ambitious quest

to run a marathon on all seven continents. His search for peace took

him everywhere from dodging penguins in Antarctica to running

under the shadow of Mt. Everest. Finding new love for his sport and

seeing the good of humanity in all corners of the globe, O'Donnell

experiences triumphs and unexpected tragedy in this beautifully

described journey. A true testament to following your dreams, this

adventurous story serves as inspiration for overcoming fear in the

midst of overwhelming adversity."
