Foreword by Paul Holmes. Illustrated.
Paralympians are dedicated athletes with the same goals and the same level of commitment as able-bodied Olympians. They train as hard, compete as fiercely and achieve as highly; they experience the same joys and disappointments.
In Against the Odds, the athletes tell the stories of their achievements in their own words with honesty, humour and strength. If you enjoy stories of courage, resilience, determination and achievement, this is a book you should read.
Featuring the personal stories of: Eve Rimmer; Graham Condon; Neroli Fairhall; Ben Lucas; Dave MacCalman; Cristeen Smith; John Dowall; Duane Kale; Aaron Bidois; Jacqui Courtier; Peter Horne; Jayne Craike; Grant Sharman; Chris Wornall; Patrick Cooper.
