Over a year ago, thrill-seeking brothers Wesley and Brent Jamison died in a scuba diving accident, leaving behind their wives, Angela and Eva. While Angela focuses on surviving and taking care of her three children, barely making ends meeting, Eva quits working and begins to lose herself in the process of grieving. Life as they knew it seems to be over, and neither can figure out how to move forward.
But then Eva discovers that their husbands registered for a seven-day ultra-marathor in gorgeous New Zealand before they died, and the race is happening in four months. She convinces a reluctant Angela to compete with her in Wes and Brent's place as a way to honor their husbands. Running the race of a lifetime just might be the perfect way to come to terms with their husbands' deaths-and with the way they lived.
