Summary
  • "Michael Pollan's How to Change Your Mind meets Christopher McDougall's Born to Run in this immersive, investigative look at the hidden culture of cannabis use among elite athletes (as well as weekend warriors)--and the surprising emerging science behind the elusive, exhilarating "runner's high" they all seek"--
  • The link between performance enhancement and cannabis has been an open secret for many years. The wide-sweeping national legalization of cannabis, combining weed and working out, has become the hottest new wellness trend. Scientists have conducted extensive research that uncovers the power of the "runner's high" long believed to be caused by endorphins. Can marijuana actually be the key to getting more Americans off their phones and onto their feet? Hesse takes listeners on a journey through the secret world of stoned athletes, describing astounding, cannabis-inspired physical and mental transformations-- just like he experienced. -- adapted from jacket and Amazon info
