Dare to Do

Reviews

Sarah is an honest, open, courageous and inspiring person... and has a contagious love for life. I can't wait for her book. Outen's story is remarkable. Sarah has self-reliance and belief in quantities I haven't come across in anyone else. She is a wonderful and nutty individual with a powerful story to tell. Definitely mad. Definitely marvellous. A seriously tough expedition. The story of Outen's indomitable pursuit of her objective to its conclusion, written with breathtaking matter of factness. An epic feat. There is only one Sarah Outen. A unique blend of powerful female athlete and silly friend. Her natural charisma, talent for storytelling and unrivalled persistence sets Sarah Outen apart. She is the top female adventurer of the 21st Century - nobody else comes close. Sarah has raised the bar of adventure travel with genuinely ground-breaking triumphs. And it has been her willingness to share the inner journey, the doubts, fears, and frustrations, that has truly set her apart. That's the way to do adventure. A gripping adventure story that is rare in its courage and rarer still in the way it feels fresh and contemporary. Sarah Outen prefaces her epic trip around the world under her own steam with a fabulous sentence: "The years ahead became some of the most vivid, treasured and, at times, the most difficult of my life. But all I knew is all we ever know - that I knew nothing about how the story would unfold." Who could fail to read on? Dare to Do chronicles a journey many readers will have mulled over at various points, but Outen had the courage to tackle it. Like Wild - only Wilder. Expand reviews
