AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Catriona Menzies-Pike came late to running and early to feminism. One of the least athletic kids in her high school class, she headed off to uni intent on expanding her mind, not improving her physical prowess. Then, at twenty, she lost her parents in a light plane crash. As she struggled with grief and the responsibility of looking after her three younger sisters, Catriona’s life took an unexpected and uncertain path through her twenties. Physically worn out, she decided to train for a marathon.' (Publication summary)
