A rich, irresistible journey of David and his dog, Lucky, from the jungles of Brazil, running thousands of miles across the vast U.S. I loved how Lucky brought people together, drawing them into sharing their life stories, as he and David pushed through heartache, matched by the joy of their quest. An epic trail story. Forever Lucky. - Amazon Customer Review

Green's book chronicling his run across America with Lucky at his side is heartfelt and inspirational. The story provides an authentic glimpse into what it takes to keep moving despite setbacks, challenges, and heartbreak. It's a deeply moving and impactful story that will make you sob, and leave you feeling hopeful. - Amazon Customer Review

Slumdog Millionaire meets Forrest Gump:

In 2018, under a full moon in the remote Mantiqueira mountain range in Brazil, a sickly stray dog chose to follow a runner during the Brazil 135 ultramarathon. He stayed by his side for 140 miles.

Fast forward to 2021, when Lucky the stray, now living the life in Florida, set off with his ultrarunner soulmate, David Green, on the journey of their lives - a four-month run covering 3,400 miles from Jacksonville Beach, Florida, to Muir Beach, California. Their route took them through a nation ravaged by Covid-19 and still reeling from the most toxic presidential election in history. An RV became their nightly retreat-on-wheels, captained by Chris, an affable chef from Brooklyn, who would provide so much more than food.

This is David's honest account, his love letter to Lucky, after three short years together, during which time they inspired each other to break barriers of what is thought possible for dogs and humans -- physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
