Cancer treatment-both an incredible miracle and a singularly depleting experience-means Bruce McIntryre will have to make a comeback. Determined to regain energy and strength and armed with the freedom that comes with retirement, McIntyre begins training for and competing in triathlons. With humor and insight, McIntyre recounts the new athletic pursuits that put him in the best shape of his life-until a near fatal bicycle crash forces him to decide what is best for his safety.

Still seeking adventure, Bruce and his wife, Joyce, enjoy multiple travel adventures from the Holy Land to Machu Picchu, to better understand and appreciate the world around them. Al the while, McIntyre retains his commitment to serving the Charlotte community through Roof Above and Habitat for Humanity.

Ultimately, McIntyre faces the decision to move into a retirement community to be in the right place at the right time, for comfort and refuge.

Taking the Long Way Home follows McIntyre's first memoir, There Are No Answers Here, Only Questions.
