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\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 218\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.46 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 01, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47641995739357,"sku":"9781942923763","price":31.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/dnyEvpLWj59781942923763.webp?v=1773840681","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/running-to-america-an-athletes-journey-from-zimbabwe-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
