One Mile at a Time
Edward M. Rahill
Coming of age in rural New York in the 1960s, Ed Rahill struggled to find his way through a challenging childhood. Inspired by the life lessons shared by his grandmother, his experiences at a boys high school, and then later at Notre Dame, he recounts how he cultivated the fortitude that would shape his life. His unique way of looking at the world, guided by tenacity and faith, gave him the confidence to build a successful career.
It was then that destiny brought him the opportunity to compete in the road race of the century, a challenge he had dreamed of since he was a boy, at a time when he was emotionally unprepared. He was about to confront his fears and the deeper truths about the man he had become, the man he used to be, and the resilience he once had.
Told with warmth, wisdom, and edge-of-your-seat car racing excitement, One Mile at a Time is a story about the gift of resilience, perseverance, and finding the courage to reengage in the face of impossible odds.
