"Author Annie Thorisdottir narrates with exceptional diction and enunciation as she describes her life as an athlete who eventually becomes a mom." — Kirkus
An inspiring memoir by CrossFit legend Annie Thorisdottir, the first woman to win the CrossFit Games twice.
In 2011, Annie Thorisdottir earned the title “Fittest Woman on Earth” after winning the CrossFit Games in only her third year as a competitor. In 2012, she did it again, becoming the first woman to ever win the Games twice, solidifying herself amongst the CrossFit greats.
Iceland Annie is the story of how she got there, and everything that happened after. From bursting onto the CrossFit scene at the 2009 Games and famously hitting her first-ever muscle-up mid-competition, to becoming a two-time champion and mentor to athletes like Katrin Davidsdottir, to surviving the traumatic birth of her daughter and the battle with postpartum depression—culminating in a stunning 2021 comeback, when she placed third at the Games less than a year after giving birth.
Now, for the first time ever, Annie shares the intimate details of her career, delving into her mental resilience, determination, and the struggles and triumphs she’s faced as a top-level competitor over three separate decades.
A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press
Opinie krytyków
"An honest, substantive, insightful memoir about the pursuit of greatness—not just the wins, but the physical and mental battles that evolved Annie as both an athlete and a person. Her story is a powerful reminder that even the strongest among us are still human, and that’s exactly what makes this book so inspiring. Proud to have shared the floor (and a few laughs) with her along the way.” —Tia Clair Toomey, 8x CrossFit Games Champion
“Annie didn’t just win; she redefined what winning means. For three decades, she competed with power, with grace, and a heart big enough to lift everyone around her. This book is the Annie I know: fierce, generous, and living proof that the impossible is within reach." —Katrin Davidsdottir, 2x Fittest Woman on Earth
“Annie’s true fitness isn’t just in what she can lift, it’s in how she adapts. She can take a lesson from anywhere, make it her own, and deliver when it counts. This book is Anníe at her core: resilient, curious, and relentless in finding a way through competition and life.” —Carl Paoli, Performance Coach & author of Free+Style
"This book is proof that greatness isn’t just what you achieve—it’s how you evolve. Annie’s story left me fired up, cracked open, and full of awe." —Mat Fraser, 5x CrossFit Games Champion
