Description:Gwen Jorgensen intends to win the Rio 2016 Olympic triathlon--an event no US athlete, man or woman, has ever won. Gwen is a stubborn perfectionist, driven to excel. Combining natural ability, organization, and discipline, she chases this goal with passion. In "Gwen Jorgensen: USA's First Olympic Gold Medal Triathlete," readers take a front-row seat at the Rio 2016 Olympics and watch Gwen as she battles the ocean, careens down dangerous hills on her bike, and runs to victory. Interspersed throughout is her tale of transformation from child swimmer to university runner and eventually Olympic triathlete. It is a story of disappointment, failure, change, growth, and accomplishment. This book explores themes of personal discovery, risk-taking, goal-setting, and team-building and is sure to inspire readers young and old to reach for their own dreams.“I would have enjoyed reading this book as a young aspiring athlete. Gwen’s story is relatable to many in that she came from humble beginnings and slowly chipped away at her big goal. Her never give up attitude and dedication to reaching her goal to be an Olympian will be inspiring to all.” –Flora Duffy, 2020 Olympic gold medalist, Triathlon"It’s a special experience to be able to read in detail the background of an Olympic gold medalist. Being able to read not just about her triumphs but also the challenges, setbacks and uncertainties along the way. Her childhood, her process, her mentality, and her team reveal what transpired to achieve a lifelong dream of hers.” –Katie Zaferes, 2016 Olympian and two-time 2020 Olympic medalist, Triathlon“Gwen’s story proves that any girl can have a gigantic dream. From everyday young athlete to aspiring Olympic champion, Gwen’s story rings true and emanates inspiration.” –Alexi Pappas, 2016 Olympian and author of "Bravey"“This may have been written for young adults, but anyone of any age will finish the book deeply inspired to pursue their goals—big or small—with passion and heart.” –Liza Wiemer, award-winning author of "The Assignment"Sprinkled with advice from adult Gwen to her younger self, this inspirational story gives the reader an inside look at the journey from little swimmer earning a ribbon to a triathlete earning an Olympic Gold Medal.” –Barb Lindquist, 2004 Olympian, TriathlonWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
