Description
'When you're facing big challenges in your life, you can think about Diana Nyad getting attacked by the lethal sting of box jellyfish. And nearly anything else seems doable in comparison' Hillary Clinton In the 1970s, Diana Nyad was widely regarded as the greatest long-distance swimmer in the world. But one record continually eluded her: becoming the first woman to swim between Cuba and the Florida Keys without a shark cage. Finally, in September 2013, after four failed attempts, Diana completed the crossing after two days and two nights of continuous swimming - 53 consecutive hours, 110 miles. She was sixty-four years old. Find a Way is a memoir about an astonishing and improbable triumph. But it is also a journey that we can all learn from - of monumental courage in the face of failure. Why, at sixty-four, was she able to achieve what she could not at thirty? How did her repeated failures contribute to her success? This is the story of an unforgettable journey - physical, spiritual, emotional, psychological - and a galvanizing meditation on facing fears, engaging our passions, and living life with no regrets.
