As a young girl living in Zimbabwe, the author discovered she had a talent: running. She joined a local track club, was mentored by a dedicated coach, and eagerly entered the world of cross-country track competition. Her meteoric rise was a surprise, but it was not without sacrifice. She became the Junior Women?s World Cross-Country Champion of Zimbabwe. At the age of eighteen, with the goal of becoming a world-class athlete, she traveled to America, a country where she knew no one. The author takes the reader on a bumpy, soul-searching, heartwarming, and sometimes heart-breaking ride. It is a compelling story told with openness, warmth, humor, and insight.
