### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    AWESOME BOOK.....
  

*by M***Z on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 28, 2012*

This book is full of amazing stories of first timers tackling this incredible race.  I'm a grandma of 5 and also,  I'm a 2 time IronMan, first time at 55 y/o, second time at 61 y/o. In between this two IronMan races, I had my share of heartaches but also the determination to get up and try again.  The road to completing an IronMan Triathlon is hard, painful at times but the reward of crossing the finish line is an amazing one.  It's not easy but totally doable.

This is an amazing book with really great stories of people's journey to train for a full Ironman triathlon.  I have read & enjoyed the book, now I'm sharing with friend who's starting his own training for his first full IM.
