520    In 2008, Bonner Paddock summited Mount Kilimanjaro. Four 
       years later, he earned the triathlete title Kona Ironman. 
       Thousands have done each individually; Bonner is the first
       person with cerebral palsy to do both. Bonner grew up just
       wanting to be ordinary. Despite his skinny legs and habit 
       of tripping over nothing, he fought to keep up with his 
       athletic older brothers and did everything he could to 
       feel like a regular kid, even when it became clear he 
       wasn't. After being diagnosed with cerebral palsy at age 
       eleven, Bonner didn't let it limit him---instead he simply
       ignored its existence. For the next eighteen years, he 
       guarded the truth about his health, building a normal life
       and keeping his secret from everyone. But the sudden death
       of a friend's young son Jake, who also suffered from 
       cerebral palsy, forced Bonner to reevaluate who he was. No
       longer content striving for normal, he began to pursue one
       breathtaking experience after another in Jake's memory and,
       in the process, raising international awareness about 
       cerebral palsy. Embracing his weaknesses to understand his
       strengths, he pursued the ultimate adventure: the Ironman 
       in Kona, Hawaii, a race regarded by many as the hardest on
       earth. Along the way he forged a renewed bond with his 
       family and launched a foundation to help disabled children
       in Africa and at home. This is a story of perseverance 
       that demonstrates how our lives are not defined by limits,
       but by the moments and lessons that push us past them.--
