Great River Legs is a lyric collection of prose poetry, creative nonfiction, and found poetry. This creative response documents my 1,398 mile, 25-day bicycle ride from Muscatine, Iowa, to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, between October 2017-March 2018. The journey took place in legs over breaks during the school year, with two additional back-to-back weekend rides that started the adventure. Wiseman embraces the many parts of herself-cyclist, data collector, meditation practitioner, nature lover, quiet observer-and brings them together in a seamless, profound, and captivating way. - Dawn Mauricio author of Mindfulness Meditation for Beginners Through small bursts of lyric prose, Wiseman explores the ways "we can begin again," how we test ourselves on paths that are "steep and dangerous" while learning to accept that we can never "control the day's rotation." - Jehanne Dubrow, author of throughsmoke: an essay in notes
