Author, Elizabeth Gilbert, states that it was Conway's unusual childhood that prompted him to ride a horse across the United States during which he set a new world record, hike the German Alps in sneakers, hike 2000 miles on the Appalachian Trail from Maine to Georgia, , live with the Navajo Indians in New Mexico, kayak across Alaska, and travel to New Zealand to scale the country's immense cliffs.
