Synopsis

Mixing the intensely personal with the clinically professional, Andy Mouncey tells his story using three different and sometimes completely contrasting perspectives: As a fierce competitor, as an experienced coach, and as a self-employed husband and father just trying to find his way in the world. The brutal honesty, penetrating insight and tension-busting humour will suck you in and keep you engrossed even beyond the finish line. If you do endurance sports, you will get this. If you don't do endurance sports, you will get this - and you will never have to ask the question 'why?' again. This is a transformational personal journey that was revealed only when Andy paused to look back - and it's also an utterly compelling tale of some long races in great places where he ran as fast as he could for as long as he could. Sometimes it worked, sometimes...
