“Passing the Torch” by Mary Peters.
Sportswomen who inspire.
Through her own achievements and her fundraising for the Mary Peters Trust, Mary has inspired generations of athletes and this book will help ensure her passion for sport is passed down to young people for many years to come. Passing the Torch is a series of interviews with established sportswomen across a variety of disciplines, whether in their prime or post competition, and gives a lively insight into their motivation, the highs and lows of competing, the camaraderie of female sport, the physical and mental benefits of exercise and what careers the stepping stone of sport can provide.
