It's aimed at business/sports people wanting to know the keys to success, people interested in mental health issues, people who want to be inspired and to get motivated and driven people who want to understand themselves better. 'Have really enjoyed the read. A number of my training mates are also reading it, and it has created quite a lot of discussion while running/cycling and over coffees/beers. We have definitely picked up some training tips and also probably made us reflect on why we do this type of sport...personally I think his honesty makes it a book well beyond multisport.' - Matt Cowie, Weekend Warrior
