Will we rise to the challenge, or will we hang our heads in defeat?

From the viewpoint of an obstacle course, Kelly takes you through the five strategies we tend to encounter throughout our lives: Recovery, Discovery, Persistency, Creativity, and Collaboration. From this perspective, she weaves in humor with a healthy dose of reality to provide antidotes on how to overcome the challenges we face not only on the obstacle course on race day, but also throughout our lives.

Walking you through her family's eight-year, & still going, journey of obstacle course races she shares with you why they were so integral to her husband's recovery from brain surgery, the aging process, raising a family, starting a business, and overcoming other health issues.
