Description
An inspiring memoir about embracing movement, identity, and self-worth on one’s own terms, this book follows a plus-size Black woman’s journey through running and the outdoors. With candor and humor, it challenges narrow assumptions about who belongs in athletic spaces while exploring race, body image, perseverance, and personal transformation. The author’s vivid storytelling celebrates progress over perfection and invites readers to rethink the limits they—or society—place on the human body.
