Críticas
"Blood sweat and tears drip from this warts-and-all account of the life of John Maclean, who went from near death to become the first wheelchair athlete to complete the Hawaiian Ironman. While you expect a story about a man doing the best with the cards he's been dealt to be inspiring, what's surprising is the naked introspection, revealing a life that's been well and truly examined. Men's Health"
