Full Circle
In October 2009 Ellen MacArthur, one of the greatest sportswomen in the world, announced her retirement from competitive sailing. Many were in disbelief. How could the woman who had fought so hard to set so many records give up racing? But Ellen had found an even tougher challenge than sailing solo round the globe. Now Ellen is ready to write about her incredible last ten years, including the trip which changed her life. She speaks honestly about the trials of fame after coming second in the Vendee Globe in 2001; about her frustrations in missing the record for the West-East transatlantic crossing by just 75 minutes in 2004; the dramatic capsize and dismasting she experienced prior to her re...

When thirteen-year-old Joanna Rowsell Shand decided to take on a challenge set by representatives from British Cycling, she didn't realize that the decision would change her life, leading her to Olympic glory. She was mainly motivated by the prospect of escaping a double maths lesson. In fact, Jo's power output was off the chart - the highest ever recorded for a female of her age - and she was talent-spotted for the junior cycling team. But with no experience in the sport, Jo was well behind her peers, who had been prepped for life on a bike since infancy. In addition, Jo was - and remains - a very shy girl, not least because of her condition, alopecia universalis, which took her hair from her just as her teenage years were about to strike. Candid, poignant and written with characteristic honesty and self-deprecating wit, this is a story of grit, determination and triumph over adversity that will leave you feeling inspired.
