review 1: This book has really really inspired me. Many people will argue with this but I am Mo Farah's legit No.1 fan! Just to know of what he had when he was young to then adapt to his new surrounding when he moved to London and become Britains best athlete ever..... Wow!? My favourite part was about 30 pages in when Mo had moved to London and saw what it was like.... 'C'mon then'. It was my least favourite part when the twins were separated :( . I would recommend this to all of those runners out there like me who need some inspiration but, I would mainly recommend this to anyone who likes reading life changing stories. This book would also be great to give to anyone who takes what they have for granted.
review 2: It's alway inspiring to read a story like this: a bo
... morey who struggles at school, doesn't speak English well, and manages to become a... Well, Let's just say a bloody hero, shall we? Manages to become a hero through sheer hard work and determination. Unfortunately, it's a tiny bit dull. Maybe it's a symptom of biographies written too early in life, but it felt a but stilted. It had its moments though: running from house to house in Mogadishu, hanging out with Kenyans in Teddington, learning the life of a hardcore runner, and the way he's able to assess when he's stuck and needs to change something to make it to the next level. The few scraps if race strategy are interesting too, so I'm glad I read it. less

This is definitely a good read, a humble but brilliant athlete. I enjoyed the book thoroughly.

Good story, the writing was sub par, but he IS a runner and not a writer.
