Overview

Written with Julie Ridge, who swam the English Channel and was the first to swim two consecutive laps around Manhattan, Take It To the Limit is about preparing the mind and the body to endure—whether in sports or life. The book includes insights from Julie and other ultra-athletes who spend their time preparing for an endurance challenge, such as a swim, triathlon or six-day race. But it’s not only athletes who incorporate endurance into their lives. The authors illustrate how achievers from many professions face challenges and thrive on a high-energy lifestyle—and how readers can too.


 

 

Praise

“Nobody knows more about facing an endurance challenge than Julie Ridge. Her many hours in the English Channel and the East River have taught her how to take life to the limit, and she has a message for the rest of us.”
—George Vecsey, sports columnist, The New York Times, and co-author of Martina and Coal-Miner’s Daughter
