Historia
Chasing the Dragon: Running to Get High is a collection of diatribes, training tips, and off-color wisdom, all processing the running life and how to get the biggest (legal) highs from your life and your runs. The author taps into his personal experience with running and addiction to look at questions such as why recovering addicts turn to running and the nature of positive addictions.

Would you consider the audio edition of Chasing the Dragon to be better than the print version?
David Stanley, the narrator of the audiobook, seems truly excited to provide the information, and he made me even more excited to hear it.
What did you like best about this story?
The stories of overcoming addiction and making positive life changes were inspirational and the solid running advice and tips were practical and effective.
I found this book so motivational that I purchased a copy of this book for my brother, who is a recovering alcoholic.
Have you listened to any of David L. Stanley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This was my first.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I recently significantly increased my running mileage while simultaneously reducing my alcohol intake. Mark Matthews and the audiobook version of his "Chasing the Dragon: Running to Get High" joined me for the last month or so of my long runs. Listening to this book was the perfect motivation. I put in more miles in the last month than I ever have in my life, and I don't think that is a coincidence.
Any additional comments?
If Mark hasn't already done so, he should consider sending a copy of this book to another Michigan native, recovering addict, and runner who happens to share the same initials: Marshall Mathers.
