'Adele's inner strength is truly remarkable. Personal Best will light a fire of hope and determination in us all.' -Lorraine Kelly
Award-winning BBC broadcaster, TV personality and DJ, Adele Roberts, was diagnosed with bowel cancer on the first of October 2021. In the months that followed, with her partner Kate Holderness alongside her, she fought very publicly through the challenges of chemotherapy and life with a stoma, whom she named Audrey. Adele's legions of fans avidly followed this remarkable journey, struck by her determination, her stoicism, and above all the resolute positivity that she and Kate demonstrated despite the many hurdles they faced along the way. 18 months on - she ran across the finish line of the London Marathon, setting a new Guinness World Record as the fastest female with an ileostomy.
Personal Best is the story of those months but it's also a tremendously valuable, life-enhancing guide to surviving and thriving through life's challenges and setbacks, illuminating a path that anyone can follow to get back on track, go further than they thought and achieve their personal best in the marathon of life - punctured with inspirational quotes and playlists along the way. Personal Best will help you to take on whatever challenge you may be facing with enough resolution to give yourself the strongest possible chance of success.

Review: Saw Adele on tv being interviewed and wanted to find out more about her life. The book is written in a fun way but is important finding out her journey before and after her surgery. Finding out about Audrey and her antics is both funny and up lifting. Top book.

Review: A beautifully written book from this amazing, inspirational and motivational human being. Adele has a wonderful way of viewing life and its many challenges, some small and some life-changing. A true warrior of mindset. A must read.

Review: I loved this couldn't put it down. It was an exact carbon copy of my own experience - receiving a stoma (not cancer, ulcerative colitis) to save my life - the similarities, the feelings, the memories, the experiences with stoma nurses, the leaking bags - brought back lots of things I'd forgotten too. I love the subtle humour and your honesty. It's been really well written - What an amazing, brave lady you are - and now you can add writer to your list of talents!
