This page was interesting to me because despite Australia's Steve Hooker injury, he still claimed the gold during the world championships in the pole vault. Doing this shows how courageous and willing Steve was to be the best in the world.What really got me interested though was that I did a similar thing this past track season, just not on such high a level. I ran from March through May on a fractured ankle. Despite the pain I felt I did not want to give my season up. Because I knew that it was my year to break some records, and win some races. I recommend this page to athletes that need encouragement to fight through injuries, and adversity that you will face as an athlete. This was one of the best cited pages that I have read so far. The page has an author, date, and labeled the picture. This article did not leave me wanting to know more, it was a very informative page that answered all my questions.
