[ THE JOURNEY ] This book exists because of hard work and dedication. It exists not only because of a passion for design, but a true dedication to the sport of running. A journey not possible without thousands of miles. 005
The paths represent the distance covered to arrive at this point and the journey yet to come both in design and athletically.
