Description
A 39-year-old dad of two, Harold Cabrera is your typical sports weekend warrior, who decides to complete three big challenges before turning 40.
Chase That Smile is his account of relationships, family life, good times, and hard times. Of training for three major physical challenges all in the same year - running the Paris Marathon, climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, and completing an Ironman triathlon - whilst in the midst of juggling a full-time job and being a parent.
More than just a personal account of every challenge faced, Harold provides insight into nutrition, the importance of training plans and most importantly how he developed the right mindset needed to take on such big endurance challenges — each battle needing both physical and mental stamina. As impossible as it sounds, with a bit of grit, a positive mindset and some minor life organisation, this book will show you how much you can truly achieve!

As I am new to running, I was looking for a book with some expert advice. I'm glad I came across Chase that Smile, real life experience in training and nutrition with Harold and his family. Well done!

I like the content and the goals that he set for himself, but the way the book reads did not keep me engaged at all. I would have preferred some breaks in the "diary" style or more storytelling throughout.
