Mara's book is about making the most of what you've got, discipline, having faith in yourself and learning, principally about who you are. But mostly it's about doing the hard yards. A very enjoyable book, which you can dip into whenever you have ten minutes to spare. A lovely template for success in any walk of life. DALEY THOMPSON CBE, Two-time Olympic decathlon champion
