Customer Reviews

Any athlete would love this book

This novel tells a stroy of Karie Johnson and her talents in running. It shows some of the shady side of sports, ie use of enhancers and what it can do to an athlete. Extremely easy to read and would be enjoyed by non-runners as well. A definite pleasant surprise.

I couldn't put it down!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It beautifuly described the highest and lowest points of running. The story is engaging and inspirational. Runners of all levels would enjoy this book.
