Seller notes: Gift inscribed and signed by author. From the Back Cover SPORTS/TRIATHLON In a tough year marked by challenges, reversals, and great performances, Craig Alexander ran into the record books, breaking a 15-year course record to win triathlon's coveted Hawaii Ironman(R) World Championship for the third time. En route to Kona, he won the Ironman 70.3(R) World Championship, making him the first man to win both world championships in a single year. At age 38, Alexander has proven that now more than ever, he is the man to mark. Triathlon's most decorated pro is also one of its hardest-working. After more than 15 years in the sport, Alexander remains relentless in his pursuit of improvement. His masterfully intuitive method of training and racing has made him one of the most consistent and versatile athletes racing today. "As the Crow Flies" combines Alexander's revealing insights with striking photos taken over the course of a year by acclaimed sports photographer Paul K. Robbins. Together, they create a fascinating picture of the tenuous balance between dedication and determination, patience and persistence in racing and life. Triathletes will not want to miss the chance to steal a page from Alexander's winning playbook. "As you will discover in reading this book, it's no wonder Craig is one of the greatest triathletes ever. "As the Crow Flies" is filled with riveting stories of commitment, setbacks, focus, and keeping it old school. He is ready for what's thrown at him, whether in training, racing, or life itself."--From the foreword by Greg Welch, 5-time world champion.
