While I was disappointed that this was never in Chris's voice (I mean, is he can do a 20 minutes speech, he can get to tell good story in his own words)but only his father's, I did appreciate it.

I wanted to read this because I have a cousin and a sister in law with Down Syndrome. This book even made me learn a few things about Down Syndrome that I didn't know. 

I do like the concept of trying to be just 1% better everyday. It's going to look different for everyone. But I wish the focus had been more on Chris and why he wanted to complete an Ironman. It was kind of told but more glossed over.
