Glenn Cunningham 

   Glenn Cunningham is grate example of adversity , yet stayed strong and never gave up on the obstacle that others thought was going to be a problem in his life . At a young age he had an accident in his school were there was gasoline put in a can when it should been Kerosene , this caused an explosion which he was injured burning his legs, and the death of his brother .  Years later his parents were informed that he needed for his legs to be amputated , because he would never be able to walk again . Him and his parents resisted to amputate his legs , he wanted to keep his legs . Later on Glenn was inspired by one of his favorite  verse in the bible , that then helped him to be encouraged and try to start walking as he did . AS he got older he took an interest in running and then later on became one of the favorite athletes in the world . AS an  athlete he won many trophies winning first place . This athlete never gave and shows you that when you feel like giving up , is the sign that you shouldn't give up not just yet , keep on trying until you reach your goals .
