This book is a tribute to the power of perseverance, courage, and the redemptive power of music, encouraging passion, endurance and personal growth. Discover the true meaning of success through the inspiring journey of an unlikely athlete, who navigates the challenges of life, love and loss on becoming the first woman ever to complete the 'Sea to Summit challenge'

 An Adventure Story-with a difference

 Jessica Hepburn is an unlikely athlete-she was labelled the 'arty' not the 'sporty' one in school. She hates exercise and believes the only reason to do it is for food, booze and box-sets on the sofa. However, in her forties, following a succession of hard and sad life experiences she started to try and exercise her way out of heartbreak. She has now become one of the world's most extraordinary endurance athletes. The first and only woman currently) on the planet to have completed the 'Sea, Street, Summit Challenge'-which is to swim the English Chanel, run the London Marathon and climb Mount Everest (which she calls Chomolungma-the mountain's original Sherpa name). And possibly the only woman (although this can't be officially certified) to have listened to eighty years and over 3,000 episodes of her favourite radio programme-Desert Island Discs.

My Review:-When Jessica Hepburn hits 40 years old she wants to change. At school she believed the only reason to exercise was for food, booze and box-sets on the sofa. Jessica is the only woman that has completed the "Pond to Peak Challenge" which is swim the English Chanel, run the London Marathon and climb Mount Everest (known to her as Chomolungmo), but it was hard work to get there. There has been one thing that has been with her through everything and that's music and Desert Island Discs. Jessica has added her music lists throughout the book, Childhood Song List, Songs of Home, (If you still believe in) Love Songs, Sad Songs, Happy Songs, Songs of Faith & Survival, Songs to Die To, along with Endnotes. This is a book of what you can achieve if you put you body and mind to it.
