NEW YORK— July 28, 2020—Morgan James’ new release, With the Wind: Finding Victory Within, by Sam Chelanga, reveals the key to finding the champion within everyone. With the Wind is a fascinating take on a man’s life who fell from triumph, faced unforeseen challenges, and persevered.

Many find themselves living a life they in no way predicted or foresaw. Sam Chelanga, a man from rural Kenya who became a professional runner and a military officer for the United States Army, understands the unpredictable nature of life. Chelanga hopes that his writing will help others realize that they are not alone, and the solutions to life are within their reach. With the Wind is his attempt to show that although people are different in so many ways, they are more alike than they may realize. It is there in that place of likeness that lays the root to the joy that is sought after. The joy, just as the likeness, was there all along.

With the Wind is a true story, written by a man who ran his way out of poverty in rural Kenya, to becoming a collegiate track star and National Champion, to now wearing the Army Green and serving in the US Military. Within its pages, Sam Chelanga gives his raw and inspirational take on life and paves the way to finding the champion within everyone. Chelanga claims that true knowledge requires one to seek inward, to find what is essential internally, in order to truly overcome the obstacles of life.
