What to expect
Tales of death, destruction, terror and heartache feature in some of the biggest rollercoaster anecdotes which either happened before the fame or ran parallel to it. How each person comes to terms with these episodes varies chapter by chapter, as does their methods employed to bouncing back from challenge in the face of adversity.
Whatever the vocation of the individual featured in the book, exercise has been a path to redemption, helping to contribute to their state of well-being and mental health, not to mention the influence of sport to those around them in society. How and when exercise presented itself will differ person to person, but the fundamental difference it makes to each individual will certainly have similarities and to the listener, they will have a combination of empathy and inspiration whilst listening to each story.
