Run Anyway: How the Boston Bombing Led Me to the Mountains of Guatemala

In 2012, Lance Svendsen, a 27-year-old youth pastor, found himself on an amazing running journey.

Originally motivated by the death of his uncle, it begins when the NYC Marathon is canceled and a group of friends decide they are going to finish what they had trained to do.

They complete the marathon without water stations, medals, fanfare, or even a designated course.

Lance's journey continues when he enters the Boston Marathon just a few months later, which ends with him witnessing the terrorist bombing at the finish line.

What follows is a 50-mile ultra-marathon, and then a most rewarding trip into the mountains of Guatemala, where Lance finds himself carrying out sick children from a place where there was only one way to reach them - on foot.

Run Anyway tells the refreshingly funny and inspirational story of a group of friends who knew they had to finish what they started.
