"A delight, full of heart and hijinks and humor." --John Grogan, author of Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog

From the best-selling author of Born to Run, a heartwarming story about training a rescue donkey to run one of the most challenging races in America, and, in the process, discovering the life-changing power of the human-animal connection.

When Christopher McDougall decided to adopt a donkey in dire straits, he had no idea what he was getting himself into. But with the help of his neighbors, Chris came up with a crazy idea. Burro racing, a unique type of competition in which humans and donkeys run side by side over mountains and through streams, would be exactly the challenge Sherman and Chris needed. In the course of Sherman's training, Chris would enlist Amish running clubs, high-spirited goats, the service animal community, and two Sarah Palin-loving long-distance female truckers. Sherman's heartwarming story of overcoming all odds to run one of the most unbelievable races in America shows the healing power of movement and the strength of the human-animal connection.

Great Bag
Color: Brown
Okay I was hesitant on buying this bag. Finally did it. I can say OMG this bag is everything. I have recently started to love carrying the backpack bags as everyday bags. The one I have is a little big so looking for a smaller one. This one is more medium size with plenty of pockets. The color was beautiful. It seems it will hold up for a while.

Perfection, Or Close to It
Color: Black
I absolutely love this bag! Now that my child is a toddler, I’ve found it easiest to combine my purse and diaper bag into one bag. I no longer need to lug around a huge diaper bag full of bottles, blankets, etc., but I did need enough room to store toddler essentials (a few diapers, a changing pad, wipes, diaper cream, snacks, snack, and more snacks, medicine, a couple of wash cloths, and a toy) plus my essentials (wallet, keys, lotion, lip balm, eye drops, kindle). This has room enough for all of those things without it being an oversized purse or a full sized backpack. A lot of purses will state that they have a lot of different compartments, but the compartments won’t be a size that makes it actually useful, but this purse is different. Each compartment is spacious. Plus, the compartment on the back that’s a secure place for your phone or wallet is actually big enough to store things without having to squeeze it in! If I could give this purse 6 stars, I would. My only qualm is wishing the straps were a different material so that they wouldn’t readjust the size so easily. But if you slide the metal part up toward the decorative leather part of the strap, the leather adds friction and stops it from sliding down.

Beautiful Color
Color: Green
This was a very nice purse. It seemed to be of good quality and I loved the color. I did return it because it was just too big for my tastes and needs. I loved the functionality of it with all the pockets, but didn't want to carry around a backpack sized purse. I would recommend it for anyone who likes large purses. Seller was wonderful to work with.
