Second Sunrise brings to life the 50-year history of one of the worlds oldest running trails with stunning photography, historical details, and the stories of the people who made the Western States Endurance Run a reality.Since its founding in 1974, Western States has been predicated on the notion that in the beginning at the first sunrise there must always be hope that 100 miles was within a runner's grasp. And then, with the start of a second sunrise, there had to be continued determination to search out where the finish still might lie even if the clock ran out.Bringing the story of the race to life, 11-time Western States finisher and ultra-running writer John Trent along with runner and veteran book designer Vicky Vaughn Shea set out to craft a book that showcases the rich history of the Western States trail and the runners who keep its traditions alive.
