Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As a recreational runner, I found How Bad Do You Want It? utterly captivating. Fitzgerald's narration is like having a knowledgeable friend by your side, cheerfully explaining the science behind the action. The stories of the athletes are vivid and inspiring, each one a testament to the power of the mind. The pacing is excellent, balancing intense race descriptions with Fitzgerald's insightful analysis. My only critique is that some of the scientific explanations could have been a bit more concise for the casual listener. But overall, this audiobook is a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their mental game, whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting out.
