I didn't know much about ultra racing or what it really took to participate in this type of a sport. Wow, after reading this book, I am blown away by all the intense training hours it takes! This sport is not for everyone. Yet the take away is that if you set a goal, truly stick with it, believe in yourself and keep the faith, you can accomplish what you set out to do! I loved Dani's descriptions of what she went through, and her ability to see the humorous side of some of her situations. Dani inspires girls and women to "go for it" and not give up! Her story demonstrates true grit!Product details

Fear No Distance A Journey to Life without Limits Danielle Grabol 9780991357185 Books Reviews
Met Danielle at Endurance House Atlanta bought book after hearing her story in person. The book is inspiring and motivating. If you are already an athlete it gives you Encouragement to keep moving forward no matter what! If your not an athlete you will be wanting to get to your nearest pool or gym to take those amazing small steps to changing your life! Just get out there!
★★★★★ from Carol in Atlanta on April 7, 2017
Give this to every young person you know because you never know who is on the brink of greatness and this book could be just the encourgement they need to take that next step!
I couldn't put this book down! Ultra Athletes think and live differently than we do....running an Ironman or two as training...do a couple of 100 mile runs to practice for the real thing! This book is inspiring, encouraging, funny and informative. No I still won't be what Danielle Grabol and Jason Overbaugh are but it WILL make me think twice when my tough day is McDonalds' ice cream machine is broken!
At 35 years old, Dani has travelled more miles in races than most people travel by plane in a lifetime. She's overcome several personal obstacles as well. 70 pounds overweight? Ok, done. Smoked a pack a day? Quit no problem. Got hit by a car and broke her leg? Whatever. I mean she rode her bike across America. That's like, well riding your bike across America I guess. Seriously, who does that? Forest Gump did something like that but he ran. I don't even know if Forest Gump could ride a bike. He outran those kids on the bikes after they hit him in the face with that rock. He rode that crappy Snapper lawn mower at the end of the movie. Can you imagine if he rode that Snapper lawn mover across America? That would take 17 friggin years. He probably couldn't even make it between gas stations. What kind of mileage do those things get? If you don't know what I'm talking about, after you read Dani's book go rent Forest Gump. You could probably just catch it on TV if you don't want to rent it. I mean between TBS and AMC it's probably on twice a month. Tell you what, if you haven't seen Forest Gump I'll give you my Netflix password. If you think about it, Tom Hanks doesn't have great luck on planes . Sully, Cast Away, Apollo 13. I mean I know he survived all those but still. He was great in Bachelor Party. Actually all his 80's movies were pretty good. The Burbs, The Money Pit, Big. Did you know he was on the friggin Love Boat AND Happy Days? Seriously, go to his IMDB page. Did you see him on SNL Celebrity Jeopardy? When he got his hand stuck on the pickle jar? So freaking funny.
Apparently my ADD has kicked in. My apologies.
Dani's story can provide motivation to everyone from a new athlete to a professional. Her courage and determination can not be matched. If you need some inspiration or you're looking for a positive role model, Dani is it.
Great book. Very motivating
A great book - very inspiring for other women in endurance sports.
This book is inspiring. I would recommend it to any one. I may even read it again. In the next couple of days.
Really motivating book from a real person. Hard to believe she ever weighed 220# but the pics proved it! Would definitely recommend.
