In A Single Bound

Why is it a pick?

Need a true story to inspire you? Try the memoir of a one-legged girl whose emotionally struggling family raised her as whole, and how she overcame their dysfunction along with the challenges of the rest of the world. Sarah is the first female amputee to complete the Hawaii Ironman World Triathlon. And you may have seen her scale the Great Wall of China on television’s “The Amazing Race”!
