Strength is said to be found in numbers but when personal tragedy strikes all that matters is the direction you turn. Everyone struggles through the loss of a loved one. For Jay Danek, it was the unexpected loss of his father at the age of 58 on 9-23-2008. Jay sought solace in running to get closer to his father. To honor his dad, he set out to run 923 straight days. Jay learned to curb his negative behavior through positive experiences. His journey took him from life as a 275 pound non-runner, suffering through depression, anxiety, weight gain, and anger, to 100-mile ultra-marathons through the mountains.
