Product Description

A WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023 - SPORTIncredibly moving and inspiring Gabby LoganIts brilliant I loved it Lorraine KellyBrilliant impressive and vividly told The Times Louise is such a positive and uplifting presence. Her fearlessness should inspire us all Susanna ReidA celebration of the strength, power and determination of women Giovanna Fletcher---JOIN LOUISE MINCHIN ON 17 EXHILARATING ADVENTURES WITH TRAILBLAZING WOMEN WHO ARE BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS, SMASHING RECORDS AND CHALLENGING STEREOTYPES. To get to the heart of who these women are I decided to do it the way that I know best, by taking part, spending time right beside them to experience the things they love.Driven to bring more attention to female stories of courage and endeavour, Louise Minchin pushes herself to the extreme and embarks on thrilling endurance adventures with trailblazing women.She freedives under the ice in the dark in Finland with Cath, the first woman to swim a mile in the Antarctic Circle; she cycles across Argentina with Mimi, one of the worlds most famous female endurance runners; and she swims from Alcatraz with Anaya and Mitali, two young sisters who have braved the shark-infested waters over 70 times.With her natural empathy and sense of humour, Louise forms close bonds with 18 incredible women. She explores what drives them and how they find the resilience and determination to go on despite lifes setbacks. Lizzie overcame a life-threatening illness and now paddleboards whilst cleaning up the planet with her community; Rhian set up a charity in the face of grief and fundraises through hikes; and Zee took up rugby alongside her busy nursing career and motherhood.Louise reminds us of the bravery inside us all, and how essential it is to celebrate womens achievements. Prepare to be touched and inspired by these fearless women.

LOUISE MINCHIN is an author, journalist, broadcaster and podcaster. Louise presented the UK's most watched morning programme, BBC Breakfast for 20 years. Before that was a news anchor on the BBC News Channel and the BBC’s One O’clock News. She has also presented The One Show, Five Live Drive, Real Rescues and Missing Live. Louise has taken part in several reality TV shows including I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, Time Crashers and Celebrity MasterChef. Alongside her career in journalism Louise is an endurance athlete, and her first book, Dare to Tri, charted her journey from the Breakfast sofa to representing the Great Britain Triathlon team in her age-group at World and European Championships. Her second book Fearless, Adventures with Extraordinary Women refects her passion for celebrating women’s success in sport and endeavour. In each chapter Louise takes on a different challenge with a courageous woman, to get to know them and tell their incredible stories.
