Item description from seller

[Author], [Publisher]. NB: This is a secondhand book in very good condition. See our FAQs for more information. Please note that the jacket image is indicative only. A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title. Author: Mark Inglis Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 208 At the end of 2001, Mark Inglis celebrated the success of scaling the summit of Mt Cook. He had lost both his legs to frostbite to the same mountain 19 years earlier. Trapped in 'Middle Peak Hotel' for 13 days with fellow mountain guide Philip Doole, both men nearly lost their lives. After reassessing his life, Inglis went back to school and graduated with an honours degree in Biochemistry from Lincoln University in 1989. He conducted research into molecular genetic techniques at Christchurch School of Medicine for three years before joining the wine-making team at Montana in Marlborough. Mark has competed and won medals at national and international level in Disabled Alpine Skiing and currently competes at an international level in Disabled Road Cycling. At the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games Mark won a silver Cycling medal. His 2001 climb of Mt Cook has been made into a documentary for TV1. The BBC as part of the Ray Mears Extreme Survival Show filmed preparation for the climb. Mark is a recipient of the AMP Premium Scholarship awards and AMP were also instrumental in providing Mark with the resources required for his innovative carbon fibre cycling and climbing legs. Mark demonstrates an enviable ability to direct his own life and achieve personal ambitions despite misfortune. He believes strongly that every person is some combination of disabled and able-bodied. This book is the story of Mark's achievements and most importantly, it is the story of how he continues to overcome all obstacles in pursuit of his goals. Next, Mark plans to cycle the length of New Zealand in November 2002, launch a range of performance sports food for athletes and climb Everest in 2003.
