About the Book

Forks In the Road is a story of my life, shaped by many amazing and unexpected events (Forks) which took me from a young farm boy with little more than an elementary country school education into the Korean War, through college, and a 32-year career with a major international airline, culminating with a Vice President position. When that career ended, I decided to take up running and completed my first 26.2-mile marathon at age 63. Over the next 24 years, along with hundreds of shorter races, I completed 233 full marathons (26.2 miles), including four in each of the 50 states as part of the 50 State Marathon organization. I completed that goal at age 87. Finally, among other endeavors, I decided to write this memoir. Everyone has forks, but often takes them for granted. I challenge the reader to recognize his/her own and reflect upon them. Roger was born on June 25, 1931 and raised as an only child of Joseph and Margaret Hauge on a farm in Lac Qui Parle County near Dawson, Minnesota. With only an 9th grade education, he assumed he would be a farmer. However, the Korean War began on his 19th birthday in June 1950, he immediately enlisted in the Air Force, and thus he began a career that took him around the world. Along the way, he encountered several forks in the road which shaped the course of his life. Having always enjoyed writing, Roger felt his experiences were unique enough that others might enjoy reading about them. He now resides in Venice, Florida, and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
