Über diesen Titel

 In this inspiring memoir, an Ironman World Championship winner shares the details of her hard-earned triathlon success and encourages others to set off on their own fitness journeys.

In 2007, Chrissie Wellington shocked the triathlon world by winning the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii. As a newcomer to the sport and a complete unknown to the press, Chrissie's win shook up the sport. A LIFE WITHOUT LIMITS is the story of her rise to the top, a journey that has taken her around the world, from a childhood in England, to the mountains of Nepal, to the oceans of New Zealand, and the trails of Argentina, and first across the finish line.

Wellington's first-hand, inspiring story includes all the incredible challenges she has faced-- from anorexia to near-drowning to training with a controversial coach. But to Wellington, the drama of the sports also presents an opportunity to use sports to improve people's lives.

A LIFE WITHOUT LIMITS reveals the heart behind Wellington's success, along with the diet, training and motivational techniques that keep her going through one of the world's most grueling events. Sport Triathlon

Kritikerstimmen

"What emerges from this book is the portrait of a thoroughly nice woman. Her exceptional qualities have led her to achievements that her readers can scarcely imagine. But she still remains touchingly connected to that ordinary girl from Norfolk. It's a winning combination."

---Jane Shilling, The Daily Mail
"What amazes me about Chrissie Wellington is not that she wins, but by how much...Like Usain Bolt, Wellington has burst on to the scene and destroyed the opposition. Those within athletics said that Bolt was coming but Wellington came from nowhere and wins by a relatively greater margin."

---James Cracknell, two time Olympic gold medalist, and adventurer
"Empowering and suitably commemorative."

---Kirkus Reviews

One of the few books I didn’t want to stop hearing. It’s been really inspiring and in some ways also “what did I do in my life?”

Such a great and inspiring book

Chrissie describes how she got into triathlon, more or less accidentally and at a rather advanced age. Growing up, she wasn't particularly very much into sport or successful in it, although she has always been an active person. Her initial successes at triathlon races were surprising even to her. It was interesting to read about her first coach Bret Sutton. I had heard or read about this controversial coach before, but Chrissie provided some deeper insights into his dictatorial methods and super tough training plans. Whether one likes it or not, Sutton has produced many champions over the years, but I don’t think I would have stayed with him too long had I been a professional athlete.

Amazing woman

I loved to listen to her first book, written like a diary, and I needed eine time tomorrow get into this one because this book is much more technical and very detailed. If you want to get much training examples you need to get this book... not only as a triathlet.

very complex and many details

Den Anfang empfand ich als langatmig. Als es endlich um Triathlon ging, war es klasse.

Spannendes Buch für Triathleten!

really got motivated by hearing the life story of Crissie W. & how she managed different stages of her life. Also, her motives were shown which makes her sympathetic.

kind of find it "cool" how she "slides" through all of it and seems to are lucky as she always seems to reach the top. But as far as the essence of the book and my personal attitude is concerned: Never ever give up is the quote to follow... thanks for sharing!!!

Amazing story of an amazing athlete. A life without limits tells it all, that whoever you are wherever you are if you want to achieve something than you can - we should not out any limits in what we can or cannot do. Brilliant life lesson that many young women/men should absolutely read/listen. Thank you for sharing your story Chrissie !

Great story
