She joined a local track club, was mentored by a dedicated coach, and eagerly entered the world of cross-country track competition. Her meteoric rise was a surprise, but it was not without sacrifice. She became the Junior Womenʼs World Cross-Country Champion of Zimbabwe. At the age of eighteen, with the goal of becoming a world-class athlete, she traveled to America, a country where she knew no one. The author takes the reader on a bumpy, soul-searching, heartwarming, and sometimes heart-breaking ride. It is a compelling story told with openness, warmth, humor, and insight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46390595584151,"sku":"9781942923763","price":1680.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781942923763.webp?v=1768803358","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/running-to-america-an-athletes-journey-from-zimbabwe-9781942923763","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
