The follow-up to her first memoir Beyond Impossible, this next instalment in Mimi’s inspiring story proves that when one door closes, another opens.

At the age of 55, record-breaking ultrarunner Mimi Anderson embarked on her most ambitious adventure yet. She wanted to become the fastest woman in history to run across America from Los Angeles to New York. For 40 days, the determined mother of three pushed herself on and on for more than 2,000 miles across the vast continent, despite the onset of severe pain, until she was forced to make a crushing decision: carry on and risk never being able to run again, or give up on her all-time goal. What happened next set Mimi on a new, unexpected journey. She learned to face her fears and bounce back from defeat by taking up the new challenge of becoming a triathlete.

Critic reviews

"In Limitless, Mimi shows that sometimes the greatest adventures in life come from finding the courage to step away from our dreams and into the unknown." (Anna Mcnuff)

During a hard time in my life this helped. I’m my past I had to give up a career. I now face the loss of two to suicide and this a a little boost.

Hard times

Mimi's story was interesting enough but this narrator was so so very difficult to listen to. First of all she has an American accent not English. Not a huge deal of course but disappointing when you want to feel like the author is telling us her story. The bigger problem is that she sounds like a robot- so clipped and choppy, absolutely no emotion. I think this would have been a better read than a listen.

Not as good as her first book.

I enjoyed it very much. Great story, learned a lot. I’ll listen again in just a few months.

I had high hopes. I was disappointed that she was so needy and whiny. Quit at 3 hours to go.

Annoyingly full of herself
