In November 2004, some former teammates of mine ran from the Pacific ocean to the Atlantic ocean. The goal was to beat the time it took a similar team to accomplish the feat 25 years earlier. They ran day and night for 2,730 miles for a total of 12 days 3 hours 48 minutes. They ran through the desert, the mountains, the snow and the rain. Coast to Coast is a record of their relay straight from the mouths of the athletes.

This is your chance to win a free copy of Coast to Coast.

I encourage everybody to buy a copy of Coast to Coast. You can get Paperback versions of the book for $14.94, and hardcover versions are available for $25.42. I will be giving away a copy of the paperback version through this contest. Official rules are included below. Go to my contact page if you have any questions or need any clarifications. If you have any questions for the author, Ryan Pancoast, then I would be more than happy to forward them along for you.

    1. Leave a comment below with your story for 1 chance to win.
    2. Write your story on another website, and link to this contest for 2 chances to win. Be sure to leave a comment below with a link to your story so that everybody can read it.
    3. Write your story on another website and if that website is primarily about running then you will have 3 chances to win. Be sure to leave a comment below with a link to your story so that everybody can read it.
      (I will be the sole judge of whether a website is primarily about running)

If the winner does not respond, then a new winner will be chosen and announced and will have the same 2 day deadline to send me a shipping address.
