iceberg.
The Power of One.
By Edward Dostaler
What does it really mean to keep going — especially when no one’s watching?
Iceberg isn’t just a book about a run across Canada and back. It’s about everything that happened when no one else was around. The doubts, the quiet victories, the isolation, the invisible strength.
At first glance, this is the story of a solo, unsupported run across an entire country — twice — to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s and breast cancer.
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
This book dives deep into the unseen:
-
The missed moments with family
-
The emotional strain of being alone for months
-
The moments of magic found in unexpected kindness
-
The sacrifices made in pursuit of a purpose
-
The small, quiet wins that meant more than applause
