NEW YORK—December 12, 2017—Morgan James’ new book release, Spartan Strong: What It Takes to Overcome Every Obstacle by Bethany Marshall, Jessica Burton, Zac Allen, and Andres Encinales, tells the personal stories of four Obstacle Course Racers and shares their secrets to success. It was written primarily for athletes, or anyone that is struggling to overcome challenges in their life.
Spartan Strong gives readers keys to success in both athletics and other areas of life. It first introduces each member of Team KO, the Obstacle Course Racing team behind the book, and shares their personal life struggles, including cancer, addiction, poverty, and more. It also discusses the team’s experience on NBC’s new television show, Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge, and explains the 19 different qualities that lead to success and helped the team overcome their own obstacles.
By reading about the athletic and personal obstacles that members of Team KO have overcome, readers will feel inspired and prepared to face whatever challenges arise in their own lives.
