Synopsis
Swim, Bike, Run is the ultimate triathlon book, from Olympic heroes the Brownlee brothers
In one of the most breathtaking moments of London 2012, the Brownlee brothers took Gold and Bronze medals in the Triathlon. Alistair strolled across the line clutching a Union Jack, while younger Jonny held on to a medal despite incurring a 15-second penalty.
It was the first time British brothers had won individual medals at an Olympics since 1900. With Jonny also being crowned Triathlon world champion in 2012, the Yorkshire duo are set to dominate this hugely popular sport for years to come.
Now they share their incredible story, describing how they train hard, think positively, and keep pushing each other to fresh heights.
Swim, Bike, Run is packed with insights into how to approach your own training and races, whether you are taking on your first triathlon or a seasoned competitor. This book cannot be missed by anyone interested in swimming, cycling and running and will be loved by readers of Mark Cavendish's Boy Racer and Running with the Kenyans.
'In one of the most dramatic episodes of the Olympics, Alistair and Jonny Brownlee secured a place in British sporting history - and legend status in their native Yorkshire. The producers of 'Chariots of Fire' have their 21st Century sequel on a plate' Daily Mail
'Under the pressure of the biggest race of their lives, they delivered in unforgettable style' Telegraph
'Sport has two new heroes: a couple of nice lads from Yorkshire' The Times
