Finding Ultra: Rejecting Middle Age - Review
Finding Ultra: Rejecting Middle Age, Becoming One of the World's Fittest Men, and Discovering Myself is the incredible true story of the author's remarkable transformation from out-of-shape middle aged guy with a history of addiction, into one of the world's best endurance athletes.
On the eve of his 40th birthday, Rich Roll was in bad shape. His days were filled with work, stress and junk food; his alcohol fueled nights were spent on the couch, remote in hand. Taking out the trash was the closest he came to exercise, and, at 50 pounds overweight, a walk up the stairs left him winded. He decided it was time to make a change. After undergoing a diet detox, adopting a vegan lifestyle, and pushing his fitness regimen to undreamed-of heights, he was profiled by Men's Fitness as one of the world's 25 fittest men. Among Roll's many jaw-dropping athletic feats: he completed the unprecedented "Epic 5"--five back-to-back Ironman-distance triathlons on five different Hawaiian islands in under a week--an achievement many said was impossible! This is the story of that remarkable transformation, a complete physical and spiritual rejuvenation that proves that anyone can "find ultra" if they know how.
“Finding Ultra” is the ultimate story of hope, perseverance and endurance against life’s biggest challenges. Well written and easy to read, the book is filled with practical tips about achieving greatness at any age through self-belief and positive attitude.
Fascinating, inspirational and motivational!

Becoming an Ironman: First Encounters with the Ultimate Endurance Event by Kara Douglass Thom
"Becoming an Ironman" is a collection of personal stories of the first experience of many athletes attempting their first Ironman triathlon.
Ironman is the ultimate test of endurance: a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a 26.2-mile run, all raced end-to-end in one grueling day—and these stories tell it straight: what to expect, how to prepare, what was rewarding, what was miserable.
These stories come from men and women of all ages and abilities. Some are stories from the champions, and some from those who did not finish. Together they testify to all the joy and agony of the race; and they provide priceless personal advice on nutrition, equipment, clothing, mental preparation, emotional fatigue, terrain, and weather. An unforgettable ode to an extraordinary endurance sport—a book for anyone who wants to become an Ironman.
The participants' dedication and single-mindedness are truly inspiring. No matter how much physical pain they endured these athletes all say they would do it again.
