Description: The Race to Be Myself by Caster Semenya Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A New York Times Book Review Editors Choice World champion runner Caster Semenya offers an empowering account of her extraordinary life and career, and her trailblazing battle to compete on her own terms. Publisher Description Olympian and World Champion Caster Semenya is finally ready to share the vivid and heartbreaking story of how the world came to know her name. Thrust into the spotlight at just eighteen years old after winning the Berlin World Championships in 2009, Semenyas win was quickly overshadowed by criticism and speculation about her body, and she became the center of a still-raging firestorm about how gender plays out in sports, our expectations of female athletes, and the right to compete as you are. Told with captivating speed and candor, The Race to Be Myself is the journey of Semenyas years as an athlete in the public eye, and her life behind closed doors. From her rural beginnings running free in the dust, to crushing her opponents in record time on the track, to the accusations and falsehoods spread about her in the press, the legal trial she went through in order to compete, and the humiliation she has been forced to endure publicly and privately. This book is a searing testimony for anyone who has been forced to stop doing what they love. Author Biography Caster Semenya, OIB, is a South African middle-distance runner and winner of two Olympic gold medals and three World Championships in the womens 800 meters. The Race to Be Myself is her debut. She lives in Pretoria, South Africa.
