26-year-old Tik Maynard faced a crossroads not unlike that of other young adults. A university graduate and modern pentathlete, he suffered both a career-ending injury and a painful breakup, leaving him suddenly adrift. Maynard decided to spend the next year as a “working student” in the horse industry. Here he chronicles his experiences–good and bad–and we follow along as one year becomes three, what began as a casual adventure gradually transforms, and a life's purpose comes into focus. This book was published by Trafalgar Square Books in June 2018.
