Synopsis of Can't Swim, Can't Ride, Can't Run

«Can't Swim, Can't Ride, Can't Run» is the sports autobiography of Andy Holgate, published by Know the Score Books in paperback (240 pages, in English).

Andy Holgate, an overweight librarian who can't swim or ride a bike and suffers from bad knees, decides to complete an Ironman: 3.8 km of swimming, 180 km of cycling and 42 km of running. Between punctures, hospitals and a peculiar stag do, he recounts his preparation with humour, and his wedding awaits him a week after the race.

Published in 2011 with the subtitle «From Common Man to Ironman»; it was shortlisted for the British Sports Book Awards 2012 in the Best New Writer category.

For triathlon and endurance sports fans, and for those looking for real stories of personal achievement.
