Running the Distance

Product Description Jared Blank was only five years old when he realized something was wrong. He could already tell that he wasn’t like everyone else. He was having trouble learning to read, holding a pencil, using scissors, and tying his shoes. As it turned out, Jared had dyslexia, and he still does. With the help of his family, friends, teachers, and mentors, Jared learned to see his learning obstacles as opportunities. He also pursued sports and running as a way to excel, express himself, and help others. In writing this book, Jared hopes that sharing his challenges and experiences with school, work, and the World Marathon Challenge will inspire others who struggle to run their own distance and know that they do not have to do it alone. About the Author Jared Blank is a marathon runner who was diagnosed with dyslexia when he was five years old. As he moved through school, he learned that, for him, academic success would be a matter of hard work and endurance. When working with tutors he discovered that tasks that took someone else an hour, might take him three. Today, Jared has run multiple marathons including the World Marathon Challenge (7 marathons in 7 days on 7 continents). He has graduate degrees from Seattle Pacific University and the University of Southern California. Jared is working to raise awareness about dyslexia and the global impact it has on all of us.
