Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jeff Peterson didn't grow up dreaming of long-distance adventures, but he's spent the last several years chasing them anyway.Raised in Bristol, South Dakota, Jeff graduated from Northern State University before serving as a Naval Aviator. After a thirty-year career in the pharmaceutical industry, he traded corporate boardrooms for long-distance trails and open roads.He is the author of It's Just Walking, which chronicles his 2,190-mile journey along the Appalachian Trail, and It's Just sMiles, which follows his Camino de Santiago trek through Spain and Portugal. In It's Just Riding, he swaps hiking boots for two wheels to pedal across the United States, proving that you don't need a perfect plan or even much experience to tackle a big goal.Along the way, Jeff's adventures have helped raise more than $150,000 for charity, thanks to the support of friends, family, and countless strangers.Jeff and his wife, Kris, have been married since 1986 and reside in Florida. They are the proud parents of two daughters, Brooke and Kerri, and four grandchildren.He believes that ordinary people are capable of extraordinary things, that human kindness is still alive and well on America's trails and backroads, and that sometimes the best way to figure life out is to just get moving.
