Shortlisted for the Wales Book of the Year Non-Fiction Award 2020, Emily Chappell is a gifted storyteller. In 2015, she embarked on a formidable new bike race: The Transcontinental. Spanning 4,000km across Europe, unassisted, in the shortest time possible. On her first attempt, she made it only halfway, waking up suddenly on her back in a field, floored by the physical and mental exertion. A year later, she entered the race again and won.
"Where There's a Will" takes us into Emily Chappell's race, grinding up mountain passes and charging down the other side; snatching twenty minutes of sleep on the outskirts of a village before jumping back on the bike to surge ahead for another day; feeding in bursts and navigating on the go. We experience the crippling self-doubt of the ultra-distance racer, the confusing intensity of winning, and the desperation of losing a dear friend who understood all of this.
