What does it really mean to be strong?
Professional ultrarunner and endurance athlete Sally McRae is known around the world for her mental toughness, relentless determination, and ability to keep moving through extreme discomfort. But the strength people see today wasn't built on a racecourse or in a gym.
It was built through adversity.
In CHOOSE STRONG: The Choice That Changes Everything, Sally shares the deeply personal story behind the athlete, coach, mother, and woman she became. With honesty and vulnerability, she writes about childhood trauma, abuse, loss, grief, hardship, motherhood, failure, and the experiences that forced her to discover what strength really means.
This is not a story about never struggling. It is a story about learning that even when we cannot choose what happens to us, we can choose how we respond.
Through stories from both life and sport, Sally challenges the common idea that strong people are fearless, unshaken, or somehow immune to pain. Instead, she shows that courage is often found in continuing when life is uncertain, painful, or nothing like we expected.
Part memoir and part invitation to examine your own life, Choose Strong explores mental toughness, resilience, overcoming adversity, grief, personal growth, endurance, and the daily decisions that shape who we become.
Raw, hopeful, and deeply human, this book is for athletes and non-athletes alike-for anyone walking through a difficult season, pursuing something that feels impossible, recovering from loss, or simply wanting to live with greater courage and purpose.
Strength is not something reserved for extraordinary people.
It is something already inside you.
And again and again, you get to choose it.
Choose Strong.
