*****************************************

Rachel is a cyclist. But she was never meant to be.

After gaining mental strength and healing through running, she thought she was free. Her depression alleviated, she came off antidepressants, winning races and collecting medals at marathons.

But when an injury stopped the only thing helping to quiet the voices in her brain, Rachel found out what she is truly made of. As body dysmorphia began to grip her in earnest, she knew she had to find a different way to kick her mental health demons for the sake of her sanity.

So, she went down to her cellar, heaved out her old bike, and started pedalling.

Like her life depended on it.

A Midlife Cyclist is a tale of two wheels, across the Yorkshire Dales, Vietnam,­ Costa Rica and beyond, and a rider in search of peace.

Includes exclusive Q&A with Jools Walker, aka Lady Velo

Rachel Ann Cullen is an author who spends as much time outside running and riding in the Yorkshire hills as she does writing. Her first book, Running For My Life, was published in January 2018. A Midlife Cyclist is her second non-fiction account of her life. It tells the story of Rachel's journey in finding joy through struggle, and how being a beginner again - on two wheels - helped her find a way through the darkness. Follow Rachel on Twitter @writtenbyrach and Instagram @rachel_running_for_my_life - she would love to hear from you.
