The story of a boy and a race, the temptation to quit—and the inspiration to keep going.
THE RACE has an introduction written by Mac Anderson, founder of Successories. At all the meetings he speaks at, he always reads a copy of this poem at the end of the meeting. Time and again, people have asked him for a copy of the poem or suggested he get it published—there was only one problem. Mr. Anderson didn’t know who the author of the poem was.
After many false leads, Mr. Anderson finally tracks down the original author and talks him into allowing his poem to be published in a gift book format. It is a beautiful book, expertly decorated, and only takes a minute or two of your time to read—but the lesson you learn from this invaluable poem is life altering and will last forever.
I read this book while I was expecting a phone call. THE RACE was so motivating to me, that I read the book to the person who called, and then asked my husband and children to read it. This is a wonderful gift book to give to those going through hard times and those who just need a boost of encouragement. Pick up a copy of THE RACE today. It touches the heart in a way that I don’t have the words to describe. You won’t be disappointed. Even though the book is small, the $10.00 price tag is well worth it.
