Beschrijving

Benoit was a gold medal winner in the first Olympics' women's marathon in 1984.  
 
The story of her rise is almost a textbook lesson in athletic achievement.  
As a youngster in Maine, she engaged in a variety of sportstennis, baseball, field hockey, and skiing.  
Ultimately, she settled on a running career when an accident ended her skiing at age 15.  
 
She attributes her success to hard work and supportive friends, coaches, and parents who taught her that "winning was neither everything nor the only thing."  
 
This is a straightforward American success story devoid of overly controversial or sensational subject matter. 
 
Alfred A. Knopf (1987), First Edition, 214 blz. 
Gebonden (halflinnen) met lichtbeschadigde en wat vergeelde stofomslag. 
Het boek zelf is in zeer goede+ staat.  
Er zitten een paar sportrecensies in over marathons die Benoit won.
