Student Athletics in :60
By the time you finish reading this, Katie Matthews (SAR'12,'14) could have run a quarter mile. Or diagnosed a handful of speech disorders. She's as fast as they come and not just on the track. This year, Matthews shattered her own school record in [...]the 5,000m with a 15:42:27. And her 3.94 GPA helped earn the speech pathology major 2013 America East Scholar-Athlete of the Year and Woman of the Year. Matthews, who also owns school records in the 3K and outdoor 5K, was named to multiple America East All-Academic squads and honor rolls. The five-time All-American is now pursuing her master's in speech pathology at BU while running professionally. "The academic and athletics sides definitely fed each other while I was an undergraduate. I don't think I could have achieved as much in either area without the other."

Running Ransom Road by Caleb Daniloff
The monikers drunk, addict, abuser, and boozehound were Caleb Daniloff's for fifteen years. Now, the introduction that fits him best is My name is Caleb and I am a runner.
In Running Ransom Road, Daniloff, many years sober, confronts his past by [...]setting out, over the course of eighteen months, to run marathons in the cities where he once lived and wreaked havoc. Competing from Boston to New York, Vermont to Moscow, Daniloff explores the sobering and inspiring effects of running as he traverses the trails of his former self, lined with dark bars, ratty apartments, lost loves, and lost chances. With each race he comes to understand who he is, and by extension who he was, and he finds he is not alone. There are countless souls in sneakers running away from something, or better, running past and through whatever it is that haunts them.
In this powerful story of ruin, running, and redemption, Daniloff illuminates the connection between running and addiction and shows that the road to recovery is an arduous but conquerable one. Strapping on a pair of Nikes won't banish all your demons, but it can play an important role in maintaining a clean life. For Daniloff, sweat, strained lungs, and searing muscles are among the paving stones of empowerment, and, if he's lucky, perhaps even self-forgiveness.
