| Summary: | The Physical and mental courage of a long-distance swimmer…
Stephen Redmond was the first swimmer ever to complete the Oceans Seven, a series of grueling cross-channel swims in different parts of the world, and yet his greatest challenge has been right on his doorstep, a 44 kilometre swim around the Fastnet Lighthouse off the south coast of Ireland.
In this inspiring book, written in a witty, gently self-mocking style, he tells the story of his previous successes, how the Fastnet challenge began to dominate his life, and how he has overcome the many demons that plague him in order to believe in his own destiny.
This is a tale of great honesty and courage and will be a source of encouragement for anyone facing a major challenge in sport or in life.
