Can’t “put it down”. Great to run to!
Not only am I prouder to be a runner, but also a woman. So much resilience is described. I’m grateful for every mile I run. Thank you so kindly you beautiful women and folks who stand behind us to continue on. So beautiful,

Story
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

For the Uncommon (and the uncommon of uncommon!)

I have been working on being a “more monster” with ultra running and some other goals I’ve had.
This book won’t necessarily motivate you (even though it does) but it will sharpen your discipline. You don’t need motivation when you aren’t a slave to your mood or passion.
I love how this book almost explains the mind of determination and also shared compelling and interesting stories throughout.
I finished this book in 2 days and listened while I ran and worked hard. It was an affirming book to those who reach for being Uncommon. I now will reach for being the uncommon of the uncommon ❤️
