Product Description:
Eight Olympic medals, including six gold and two bronze in Athens in 2004, Michael Phelps is the current holder of six world records, and seven gold medals at the 2007 World Aquatics Championships. Phelps is well on his way to his ambitious goal of "changing the sport of swimming." But despite Michael's pre-eminence in the pool, his story is not a swimming diary but a tale of adversities overcome and redemption through persistence. This new softcover edition contains a substantial update, as Phelps reflects on his life since his record-setting performance in Athens. The Olympic star reflects on his November 2004, DUI arrest. He recalls his experiences as a student at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Phelps also takes readers poolside for his record-setting 2007 performance in Australia and shares his thoughts heading into the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China.

Michael Phelps is an amazing guy and reading about his life really made me think about how ... Read More
Rating:
- Good Read
This was a very interesting book. I did sometimes find myself day dreaming when reading his pr & wr times. I'm sure the times would be more interesting to a swimmer as I am not. But overall I thought this was a really good book.

- great read
This is a great read. My swimming granddaughter used this book as a report and she really enjoyed reading about Michael's life from his prospective.
Rating:
- Great Read of a Personal Story.
This is a good read. There is a little bit of swimming jargon that the non-swimming fan may get caught up in- but the story so surpasses that - so you don't notice much.
Rating:
- Dreadful
Started swimming a bit and taking notice of athletes... this one is a bore. Boy starts swimming. Boy is great from the start. Boy gets gold.
