The incredible story of Rich Roll

Talk about a book you can’t put down. Finding Ultra, a book by Rich Roll tells the incredible-but-true story about a man who was once fifty pounds overweight and managed to completely transform his body and mental state of mind. A lawyer who conquered alcoholism, he went vegan at the age of 40 and discovered a totally new way of eating. Further he began to train daily and then, just two years after committing to the change, became the first of two people to complete the EPIC5—five Ironman triathlons on five Hawaiian islands in under a week…Wowza!

We’ve been complaining about loosing those last eight pounds since giving birth to our last little one and here’s a man who in a matter of months managed to completely change his body. Talk about giving a mama hope!
