Paperback. Etat : Fair. Mark Inglis has transformed his life. Since becoming an amputee at the age of 23 he has been a research scientist, and has made medal-winning wines, Lindauer and Deutz Marlborough Cuvee, with Montana Wines. He won a silver medal cycling at the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games. In 2002, to his great joy, he stepped onto the summit of Mt Cook again. Many New Zealanders will remember November 1982, when Mark Inglis was trapped with fellow climber, Phil Doole for 13 days, in a ice cave near the summit of Mt Cook. Suffering raging blizzards, a near rescue, a helicopter crash and severe frostbite, both men were finally lifted from the mountain. During time spent in the burns and spinal units of Burwood Hospital in Christchurch, both men had their legs amputated below the knee. NO MEAN FEAT is an inspiring story of remarkable courage and determination. For Mark Inglis, challenge in life is paramount and every new adventure brings with it the opportunity to live life to its fullest. N° de réf. du vendeur 00109319967

They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

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. Paperback.
