Summary:  Vanessa Alford was obsessed with becoming one of Australia's top marathon runners -- and she pushed her body to breaking point. Her body fat percentage dropped; she developed stress fractures and despite being young, strong and supposedly healthy, she felt unwell most of the time, but she continued training, ignoring the concerns and advice of family and friends. It was only when she discovered she was unable to conceive that her desire to have a baby shattered her wall of denial and allowed her to see clearly what she was doing to herself.
