"Sophie is an incredible inspiration for all runners out there" -- Susie Chan, ultrarunner and author of Trails and Tribulations "The book is beautifully written - vivid and honest - providing a rare insight into endurance racing as Sophie takes us into the very heart of her remarkable, gruelling sporting challenges. It's one of the best running autobiographies I've ever read - engaging, moving and truly motivating. It also highlights, with clarity and courage, the inequality that still exist for women in sport today. Above all though, this is a hugely relatable, human story of a woman determined to make change happen - not just for herself, but for others. " -- Sue Anstiss MBE, founder of Fearless Women "I read this book and felt seen. Sophie writes with the kind of honesty that stops you in your tracks - about running, yes, but mostly about life, ambition and the quiet determination to keep showing up. This isn't just a book for runners or mothers - it's for anyone who's ever questioned their limits and carried on anyway. It's raw, real and full of heart.

" -- Lowri Morgan, endurance athlete "You'll learn about [Sophie's] story, plus you'll find practical guidance and inspiration for achieving your goals, including lessons on resilience, self-belief and empowerment." -- Top Sante " The Power Within isn't your run-of-the-treadmill running book. Gripping, informative and inspiring. it's one of the most riveting running autobiographies I've ever read. Sophie is a pioneer in women's running, not just crashing through barriers to her own participation in races, but making sure us slower runners aren't discouraged from entering events in the sport she so clearly loves." -- Lisa Jackson, author of Your Pace or Mine?.
