{"product_id":"2940169353815","title":"Age Is Just a Number: Achieve Your Dreams At Any Stage In Your Life","description":"From legendary Olympic gold medalist Dara Torres comes a motivational, inspirational memoir about staying fit, aging gracefully, and pursuing your dreams.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDara Torres captured the hearts and minds of Americans of all ages when she launched her Olympic comeback as a new mother at the age of forty-one-years after she had retired from competitive swimming and eight years since her last Olympics. When she took three silver medals in Beijing-including a heartbreaking .01-second finish behind the gold medalist in the women's 50-meter freestyle-America loved her all the more for her astonishing achievement and her good-natured acceptance of the results.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, in \u003ci\u003eAge Is Just a Number,\u003c\/i\u003e Dara reveals how the dream of an Olympic comeback first came to her-when she was months into her first, hard-won pregnancy. With humor and candor, Dara recounts how she returned to serious training-while nursing her infant daughter and contending with her beloved father's long battle with cancer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDara talks frankly about diving back in for this comeback; about being an older athlete in a younger athletes' game; about competition, doubt, and belief; about working through pain and uncertainty; and finally-about seizing the moment and, most important, never giving up. A truly self-made legend, her story will resonate with women of all ages-and with anyone daring to entertain a seemingly impossible dream.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47116531761392,"sku":"2940169353815","price":17.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169353815_p0.jpg?v=1763779659","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169353815","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
