With Foreword by Mike Reilly - 'The Voice of IRONMAN'
When Phil Dale swapped drugs for triathlons, he didn't escape addiction - he redefined it. This gripping memoir charts his journey through decades of substance abuse on the rebound, to the relentless training fields of endurance sport.
Candid, funny and painfully self-aware, Dale explores how the same compulsive drive that once destroyed him, now fuels his determination to finish every race.
Through childhood memories, London's underground music scene, and the long road to IRONMAN, A Drug User's Guide to Triathlon reveals that transformation is never clean or complete - it's a battle fought daily, stroke by stroke and mile by mile.
A brutally honest and inspiring read about resilience, obsession, and the strange, shared language of addiction and ambition.
