High School Hero: Claire Markwardt
This has to be one of the most inspiring stories of courage and determination that I have ever read:
High school runner breaks leg in meet, crawls to finish anyway
Ask Markwardt to tell you her memories from the meet, and the first thing she mentions is how perfect the entire day was supposed to be. She was to run the biggest race of her life in the morning. As soon as it finished, she was to drive with her dad from Columbus to Warren, where she would be the maid of honor in her big sister Anna’s wedding that night.
