The Man Who Couldn't Stop Running

A collage by Joo Mo Kang about a man with extreme will power and astounding stamina- his name, Louis Zamperini.  
Time Magazine writes about him, "...by high school, Zamperini was a phenomenally gifted miler with astounding stamina and a hip-rolling, ground-eating seven-foot stride. But long before then, it was apparent that he had something even rarer and less easily explicable inside him: a chronic restlessness, something beyond even willpower, that wouldn't allow him to give up even when going on was no longer endurable."  He later fights in WWII and survives a Japanese POW camp.  Read more here.
