Amy Moritz, a sportswriter at The Buffalo News for 18 years, is out with her first book, “I Thought You’d Be Faster: The Quest To Become An Athlete.” A sportswriter turned triathlete and distance runner, Amy became an adult-onset athlete in her 30s. While in love with the sport and all it brought her, she was nagged by a lingering question: Was she really an athlete? Through this memoir, Amy describes her own journey to defining herself as an athlete and explores why it can be so challenging for women, of all abilities, to do the same.
