Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins

Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins


Facing the mind-numbing prospect of running my first marathon since 2010 next summer, I've been on the hunt for books to fill my inspirational tank so-to-speak. Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins, filled it full to overflowing in one fail swoop. If you need a bit of a "come to Jesus" with yourself and your self-imposed limitations, for any reason, be it an athletic pursuit or not, this book needs to be on your "To Read List" a.s.a.p.
