Becoming an Ironman: First Encounters with the… por Kara Douglass Thom
A good book overall - inspiring stories, sad stories, and some stories which get lost as copies of the rest. But reading it just before watching the 2010 Ironman Kona made seeing all of the people out there in a different light.
Soccer Girl Cassie's Story is part of the Go! Go! Sports Girl series. The story is engaging with friendship and teamwork the central themes. The illustrations are bright and cheerful. Soccer trivia and game rules are highlighted throughout the story. The book has a summary on the last page of what Cassie learned, as well as Healthy Tips. "Dream Big and Go For It!" Thumbs up for this easy reader series!
A friend loaned this to Mike when he was training for his first Ironman triathlon. This has personal accounts by all sorts of people regarding their first Ironman experience. Some stories are funny, some are sad but all are inspirational.
This book is a peek inside the world of the Ironman. All in all, a fun and inspiring read, but it does get a bit repetitive after a while.
