Publisher Description
In 2007, Chrissie Wellington shocked the triathlon world by winning the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii. As a newcomer to the sport and a complete unknown to the press, Chrissie's win shook up the sport. A LIFE WITHOUT LIMITS is the story of her rise to the top, a journey that has taken her around the world, from a childhood in England, to the mountains of Nepal, to the oceans of New Zealand, and the trails of Argentina, and first across the finish line.
Wellington's first-hand, inspiring story includes all the incredible challenges she has faced--from anorexia to near--drowning to training with a controversial coach. But to Wellington, the drama of the sports also presents an opportunity to use sports to improve people's lives.
A LIFE WITHOUT LIMITS reveals the heart behind Wellington's success, along with the diet, training and motivational techniques that keep her going through one of the world's most grueling events.

This book is not only about the life & challenges of a world champion, but most importantly it's truly a motivation not to set your own limits!
Thank you Chrissie!
A Life Without Limits
Excellent portrait of a burning desire to accomplish a goal that seems far and beyond. I will certainly use excerpts from this book to fuel me emotionally, during my 1st IronMan in Cozumel, Mexico.
Thank you Chrissie!
