Andrew Jardine thought he would never walk again and would spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair after a bus crushed one of his legs when he was just five years old. Yet 57 years later, he had recovered to run a 100-mile race in the Himalayas. A newspaper colleague wrote a story about the feat, headlined the Miracle Runner. Now Jardine tells what it was like running at nearly half the height of Mt. Everest and the emotional peak of ecstasy he reached after he completed the tortuous trail amid the mountains.
