Winning is everything, was Coach Vince Lombardi s§advice and from the 1960s forward it became the§measurement of success for competitive athletes,§coaches and the media. But does winning really define§success? Is winning really everything? Writer and§runner Pam Cravez considers this question as she§follows around sports medicine doctor and guru to§Alaska s hard core athletes, Jay Caldwell. Caldwell§founded one of Alaska s most noted wilderness races§- Crow Pass Crossing where athletes scale a§mountain and cross a frigid glacier-fed river in bear§country to become crowned winner. A modern-day Vince§Lombardi, Caldwell has no interest in losers. This§book bridges the distance between Caldwell s§definition of success and runners he calls wannabes, such as the author. It is a book for all§of those people who ve laced up running shoes and§questioned why they ran. It''s a book that explores§reasons to run that don t involve winning.
