The old man puts him through a regimen that changes his diet, training, and lifestyle. Stunned by the impossibility, Dan begs the old man, whom he instinctually names Socrates, to share the secret of his abilities in order to achieve his goal of Olympic Gold. One moment, Dan is paying for his snacks, the next the old man is on the roof of the station. Behind the counter, an old man seemingly moves without regard for space or time. One night, awakened by yet another nightmare, Dan goes for a run through his foggy neighborhood and comes upon a well-lit service station. Still, Dan wakes up almost nightly from terrifying nightmares and odd visions he can't explain or dismiss. Arrogant, talented Dan Millman seems to have the perfect college life: a stunning gymnast's body of incredible strength, handsome looks, good grades, plenty of money and a shot at the Olympic qualifiers in men's gymnastics.
