Summary

Christian Science monitor reporter Richey enters the first Ultimate Florida Challenge kayak race to get his bearings after a difficult divorce. The journey "pulls Richey back to when he was embedded with troops in Iraq, reporting on missing children, and hiking the mountains of Montana with his son." This memoir shares the physical and emotional journey he went through during the grueling, 24 hours-a-day race.
