Fiction
Who would you run one hundred miles for? Caleb Oberest is an ultramarathon runner, who severed all
ties to his family to race brutal 100-mile marathons across
mountains. Shane Oberest is a sales rep for a cutting-edge
biotechnology firm, creating new cures for the diseases of
our time. Shane has spent his life longing to connect with
his older brother, but the distance between them was always
too vast. Caleb’s running group live by strict rules, but Caleb is
breaking one of them. He has fallen in love with a new
member and her infant daughter. When Caleb discovers that
the baby has a fatal genetic disease, he reaches out to
Shane. On the verge of becoming a father himself, Shane
devises a plan that could save this baby and bring his lost
brother home. But to succeed, both brothers will need to
risk everything they have. And so each begins a dangerous
race that will push them past their boundaries, and take all
of Caleb’s legendry endurance to survive. Derek Sherman’s authentic, compelling story of
ultramarathons, biotechnology, and family takes us deep into
new worlds and examines how far we will go for the people we
love.
