Description
Ben Rolfe's inspiring story is one of transformation and perseverance. After being told he wouldn't see 40 unless he changed his lifestyle, Ben embarked on an incredible journey to prove that anything is possible.
From an overweight, sedentary smoker with a busy career and young family, Ben went on to complete some of the world's toughest ultra marathons, including the Western States 100 and the Marathon Des Sables. But when one of his daughters was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, he faced his toughest challenge yet.
This thrilling account details Ben's journey as he takes on an unsupported 100km trail run in the mountains behind the Cote d'Azur, aiming to prove that with determination and hard work, anything can be achieved. A testament to the power of the mind and the human spirit, Ben's story is a worthwhile read for anyone looking for inspiration.
