Lee and Victoria weren’t the only ones to love “Showing Up” by Nedd Brockmann… Here is what the QBD crew thought:
Following his epic run across Australia, Nedd Brockmann tells all in his unbelievable and extraordinary biography, “Showing Up”
He was a 23-year-old tradie when he decided to run 3,953 kilometres from Cottesloe to Bondi Beach in the fastest recorded time of forty days. Brockmann’s primary motivation was the issue of homelessness and raising money and awareness for this crisis. He also wanted to push his body to the limit and challenge his own self-expectations. In this captivating non-fiction title, Brockmann goes into depth about the stories that motivated him to keep going, even when he felt like his body was going to give up. When Brockmann first started his journey, he had less than 4,500 Instagram followers and once he reached the finish line at Bondi Beach there were 10,000 plus fans waiting to witness his amazing achievement.
For anyone who loves a feel-good adventure of immense self-perseverance and the driving force to do better for yourself and others in need, this biography is a must-read. Brockmann takes us through the stories that inspired him to keep running while he was alone on those desolate stretches of road. He reminds us through his huge feat that we are all capable of greater things if we are willing to work for it.
