This is a special Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA)1992 Olympics 20th Anniversary Edition of Dave Johnson's acclaimed autobiography. * Aim High is Dave's personal story. About a teen with natural talent drifting into trouble and how teammates, coaches and parents saw something more. About a marriage that faced the devastating loss of a child. And about a faith that gave a focus to aim high in life, as well as on the field. * And Dave Johnson takes you trackside: the intensity, the exultation, and the focused performance in the face of injury and heartbreak. * Aim High not only captures the drama of decathlon competition, but also how a once-drifting life was brought into sharp focus by Jesus Christ. * Includes an update profile of Dave Johnson today, still aiming high!
