"Unless an avalanche, a stone or old age comes to get me, I will continue to climb mountains, in love with naked lightness, seeking movement until the body no longer has the resources to follow the mind, and convinced that the best time is always now, and the best memory will always be tomorrow". This is how a life of dedication to the mountain is defined, day after day of respect and admiration for the peaks, crests and trails. Such is the life of Kilian Jornet, world champion in trail running and mountain skiing, as he describes it in his book "Nothing is impossible".
A must read for all mountain lovers, in which we approach the career of an elite athlete who, more than to compete, climbs to the summits as a vital need. A book about effort, the limits of the human body and the beauty of putting one foot in front of the other until you touch the sky.
Enjoy!
