Looking forward to reading this! A sports memoir described as a "lyrical narrative [that] is genre-defying, refusing to adhere to conventional ways of narrating stories we carry within our bodies" is my kind of book 🤩

I'm attempting to swim 40 miles between July 4 and my 40th birthday 🎉 on August 3. I've swum about 10 miles so far 🏊♀️ I don't think I've swum this much in 1 week since college (where I swam a lot more than that!).

First open water swim of the season 🏊♀️ I got tangled and almost drowned in lake weed 🌿 Also, I got out of the water with a dirt beard 🧔♂️ So, a pretty successful swim by all measures.

Switzer didn't just advocate for elite and Olympic running; she sought to create an inclusive running environment for all levels of women runners. Kind of makes me want to train for and run another marathon. Maybe. Some day. [From @GreenMachine459] (7/7)

2023 was a challenging year and we didn't meet most of our publishing goals. We did, however, meet a few amazing sportswomen who shared their stories with us, we reviewed a few excellent sports books, and we're feeling optimistic for more growth in 2024 🎉

This year was challenging. I made hard decisions. I dealt with other people's poor decisions. But I've gotten back parts of myself and my life that I thought were gone forever. I'm safer, happier, calmer, and stronger than I was at this time last year, and I am grateful 🎉
