BOOKS THAT INSPIRE
Dream Big
Dream Big is a touching story of rejection, determination, a beloved Grandpa, a Boston Marathon attempt, a Boston Marathon failure, and the good advice that finally got Dave to the finish line.
Finish Strong
Seven marathons on seven continents in seven days? Is that even possible? Finish Strong answers with an inspiring, “Yes!” The secret? Big dreams, hard work, and great friends!
Running Across America
An inspiring, true story about Dave’s 3,452-mile run across America. Through 13 states, blistering heat, and being “pulled over” by a state trooper, Dave relies on good friends, family, humor, and sheer determination to fulfill a dream — and to help kids who can’t run.
