Picked this book based on its ad in Runner’s World. About a surfer’s journey to discover the motivations and ways to avoid fear. It was part adventure book, part memoir, part psychology and part physiology study. It was an okay read but was in this weird place of trying to stay relevant while using technical language in all realms. It felt rather rushed, and the recency of the events suggest that their full impact on his life hadn’t really marinated.  But do feel a “Fear” sermon series growing out of it somewhere and somehow.
