À propos de cet audio

Runners' vocabulary is full of acronyms like DNS for "Did Not Start" and DNF for "Did Not Finish," but when Mirna Valerio stepped up to the starting line, she needed a new one: DNQ for "Did Not Quit."

Valerio has tied on her running shoes all across the country, from the dusty back roads of central New Jersey to the busy Route 222 corridor in Pennsylvania to the sweltering deserts of Arizona. When you meet her on the trail, you might be surprised to see she doesn't quite fit the typical image of a long-distance runner. She's neither skinny nor white, and she's here to show just how misguided these stereotypes can be.

In this prejudice-busting, body-positive memoir told with raw honesty, an adventurous spirit, and a sharp sense of humor, Valerio takes listeners along on her journey from first-time racer to ultramarathoner and proves that anyone can become a successful athlete.

I loved the voice and no doubt the entire story is good… but it bounced around so confusingly… I gave up on the book several times. One chapter had lots of Spanish (which I don’t speak)… I wish the book was written mostly in chronological order … with only a few flashbacks it would no doubt be a 10/10. With that said and only 4hrs left of the book, I am giving up for good, due to timeline whiplash.

Impossible to follow the story
