RACING FOR RECOVERY
Co-written by Maximum Fitness contributor John Hanc (“America’s Toughest Gym,” page 102), this inspiring biography chronicles the turnaround in the life of Todd Crandell. After 13 years of brutal drug and alcohol abuse, Crandell quit cold turkey, and found his salvation in sports and fitness. Specifically, he channeled his efforts into triathlons and Ironmans (he’s now completed 10 of the latter). Crandell now works as a professional speaker and drug counselor, and runs a foundation to help others prevent and escape addiction. $14.
