This Is Not About Running : A Memoir.

Cain, Mary. (Author).

Summary:

Mary Cain was a running prodigy, invited to train at the celebrated Nike Oregon Project. Young and naive, she thought the bullying, abuse, and body shaming she experienced there was normal and needed to be endured in order to become a champion. But struggling with an eating disorder and chronic injuries that she was not allowed to recuperate from, she dropped out at age 20. She later sued her coach and Nike. 'This is Not About Running' is a brutally honest memoir of elite sports gone wrong - and a clear-eyed call for how parents, coaches, and young athletes themselves can build a healthier youth sports culture.
