An international career soon beckoned & after turning out for the England under-21 & B teams he received a call-up to the England training camp for Italia 90. Despite missing out on a place in the final squad he suitably impressed the management with Bobby Robson earmarking him as an England captain in the making. As a rising star Paul became a target for top clubs like Manchester United Arsenal Spurs & Liverpool but he always stayed loyal to his beloved club deeming Maine Road the spiritual home at which his destiny lay. But then in September 1990 disaster struck. Paul ruptured his cruciate ligament & sustained the worst possible injury that a footballer can suffer. & so began his nightmare.

Im Here To Win

The Ironman World Championship is one of the most gruelling tests of mental and physical endurance and athleticism in the world. Its competitors have 17 hours to swim 2.4 miles bike 112 miles and run a full marathon 26.2 miles. Chris McCormack has dedicated his life to training for - and winning - this race a feat he has accomplished twice along with winning the Australian Ironman five years in a row and coming in first at both the Triathlon World Championships and the International Triathlon Union World Cup. But his journey to athletic greatness is more than one of just physical endurance. IM HERE TO WIN is McCormacks account of everything it takes - mind body and spirit - to become a champion. In 2010 McCormack silenced his critics when he won the Hawaiian Ironman Championship at 37. He
ran the race not just for himself but for his late mother and the charity he founded in her honour to fight breast cancer. While Macca gives much credit to his physical performance he believes his success comes from what he does before and after the race as much as during.
