Description
There Is No Wall is a deeply personal and unflinchingly honest account of ultrarunner Allie Bailey's struggles with alcoholism, depression, and mental breakdowns. With dark humour and vulnerability, Bailey recounts her darkest moments, revealing how she found solace in the ultrarunning community and the techniques that ultimately saved her life.
This is not a story about how running saved her, but rather how it provided the space to listen, learn, and grow. Bailey's journey is a testament to the power of doing something you love, and how it can lead to unexpected achievements.
Part memoir, part self-help, There Is No Wall is a powerful and moving account of one woman's journey towards recovery and self-discovery. With its unique blend of honesty, humour, and resilience, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone who has ever struggled with mental health or found solace in a hobby.
