Tricurious: Surviving the Deep End, Getting Into Gear and Racing to Triathlon Success

By Laura Fountain and Katie King

Laura was a self-certified couch potato who, until a few years ago, could only run for a couple of minutes at a time, and couldn't swim. She has now completed several marathons and is a committed triathlete. But Laura couldn't have achieved what she has without the advice and support of her friend Katie. A life-long runner, fair-weather cyclist and born-again swimmer, Katie helped Laura through the ups and downs of training for a triathlon. As well as surmounting fears of failure and, more importantly, Laura's fears of drowning in the swim start, their triathlon journey gave them the opportunity to push their limits and have fun along the way. Tricurious tells Laura's and Katie's story with energy and humor. Filled with anecdotes and advice about the trials and tribulations of preparing for a triathlon, this inspiring book will answer your questions and leave you curious to experience the joy (and pain) of swim, bike, run.
