Inspiration...

(click on image to enlarge)


This book is a true inspiration for me. It is about a woman who does open water swims all over the world and was the first person to swim from Alaska to Russia (they are a lot closer than you might think). I find her stories fascinating. She is someone who inspires me to keep moving forward (in life) even when I feel like giving up the most. The hardships can be conquered if you can push through them to the other side. Not only is her story inspirational but the book is simply written. While I do appreciate all different writting styles, I am a fan of writing that is to-the-point without being vague. If you ever get a free day, week, or month, and are looking to be inspired I would highly recommend reading this book.
