Customer Rating:      Summary: Quick, entertaining read Comment: I loved this book. As I prepare to complete my first triathlon, I found this book to be informational and inspiring. It is so much more than just a book about training for a triathlon. I have passed it on to my husband, who also enjoyed it. Now we've passed it along to a friend.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Book Sucked!!! Comment: Couldn't get past the fifth chapter. I left the book on the airplane on purpose! I love triathlon's and heartwarming stories but this was not either.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great! Comment: I thought this book was great, I couldn't put it down until I was finished. She tells her story of her start with triathlon from the beginning, it was informative, it will make you laugh out loud, if you do triathlon it will make you remember your start and if you thought you could never do something like triathlon she just might help you decide different!
Customer Rating:      Summary: A Truly Inspirational Book... Comment: Recently, the word Triathlon entered my life. I do not know where it came from, but I am being pushed by this "Rogue Code" to become a triathlete...very much like the author's experience. Reading about Jane Booth's experience has helped show me what my life will be like as I progress from newbie enthusiast to triathlete. I related emotionally with the author, and I had tears in my eyes when she completed her first endurance event. In my opinion, this is a must read book for anyone who wants to try something new, something challenging, even if one is fearful of the activity or activities involved. This book shows that with faith and confidence, support from others, that "regular" people can overcome their fears and succeed in reaching their goals! Transformed by Triathlon is not only inspirational, but very motivational, too. Well Done Jane!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Transformed by Triathlon: The Making of an Improbable Athlete Comment: I loved this book. Jane Booth is incredibly inspirational. She gives us a very personal and entertaining view of her journey from ordinary to extraordinary! I enjoyed Jane's comical and insightful description of herself as a true novice transformed into an experienced athlete. She has a way of bringing you along for the ride. Her descriptions of the San Francisco Bay Area were amazing, too.
