Book review of Swim Bark Run in Triathlete Magazine

TRIATHLETE MAGAZINE

July, 2018

Want to get your kiddos into triathlon? Do it with doggos! This charming illustrated children’s book follows Daisy the Bulldog as she cheers for her owner at his races, then decides to put on her own K9 event with her three buddies. Rascal the Dachsund takes over race director responsibilities, and the race planning gets underway. Obviously, doggos can’t bike, but they can skateboard! Adorableness and life lessons ensue – like how to persevere when the going gets tough, and that sometimes it’s important to put others before yourself. If you want to teach your pups to win at all costs, this book isn’t for you. If you want to teach them to find joy in being out there and supporting friends, grab Swim Bark Run pronto. We tested it on Triathlete’s resident 19-month-old and she instantly fell in love with the chubby-cheeked Daisy and her race mantra: “Go, Daisy go! Swim, bark, run. Go Daisy go, just have fun!” –Erin Beresini, Editor-in-Chief, Triathlete Magazine
