The Triathlete's Devotional

The hours an athlete gives to swim, bike, and run do not have to compete with a walk with God. They can become part of it. In The Triathlete's Devotional, IRONMAN® World Championship finisher and endurance coach Tiffany Woods draws on nearly two decades of training and racing to show endurance athletes that the sport they love can be a place to meet God. Thirty-two devotions each open with a true story from the racecourse, then turn to Scripture (NIV), guided reflection questions, journal space, and a closing prayer. The devotions take on the athlete's real interior life: open-water fear and pre-race anxiety, rest and recovery as holy rather than guilty, worth and body image, injury and the DNF, comparison, and the finish line as a picture of something greater. Written for Christian triathletes at every distance and for the runners, cyclists, and swimmers who train beside them, it is equally at home in a transition bag and on a church book table, and it makes a natural gift for race season.
