Fiercely
Driven
moves at a breathtaking pace
as Canadian bobsledder Chris
Lori tours you through fourteen
years of high-speed drama
and recurring adversity. Horrific
accidents and a unique brand
of politics are only some
of the hazzards on the path
to four Winter Olympic appearances
(Calgary 88, Albertville 92,
Lillehammer 94 and Nagano
98).
In Fiercely
Driven dwells
humanity bated by the elusive
Olympic dream, evidenced when
Chris falls short of Olympic
bronze by 11-hundredths of
a second over four heats at
the XVI Winter Games.
In Fiercely
Driven dwells
a story brushed with spots
of uncanny humor that engage,
incidents that incite, a subtle
commentary that leaves the
reader questioning the pragmatics
of the Olympic Charter and
the lengths to which athletes
will go to realize their dreams.
Inspiring for athletes. Encouraging
for underdogs. Fascinating
for anyone intrigued by the
underground world of obscure
occupations. In this case:
amateur sport and bobsledding.
