Courtney Thompson was a Seattle kid. Undersized. Overachieving. Dreams large. Outworks everyone. Takes risks. Unafraid to fail. Learns from losses. Refuses to quit. State champ. National Champ. All-American. And--against staggering odds--Olympic Games medalist. A rare character too interesting to ignore. Wise beyond her years. Passionate. Honest. Smart. Funny. Hugely entertaining.—Anonymous
