Review

Whether you are an elite competitor or a first timer, read this book to be inspired to start moving - and move like you have never moved before. To connect with your body and your inner strength in ways you've never felt before. And like Jane, unlock your true potential and inspire others to find theirs. --Brandi Chastain, World Cup soccer champion and Olympic gold medalist, from the Foreword

Jane Booth transformed her life by her willingness to take a risk - and try a tri. She shares private and personal moments, wins and losses, and gives you essential information to make your life experience more rewarding - triathlon or not. --Sally Edwards, Former Masters World Record Holder, Ironman Triathlon, from the Foreword

The delightful, sometimes hilarious, and always warm account of a woman who leaves her comfort zone, confronts her fears of athletic endeavor, and discovers the triathlete within. Much more than just reaching her goals, Jane comes to the poignant realization of what endurance in life really means. --Dean Ottati, author, The Runner and the Path
