Glenn Cunningham was a great inspiration to me because at a young age he experiences a tragic accident that could have almost killed him. When he was in the accident he was at school with his brother and then the fire started. The outbreak had killed his brother and glens legs were almost completely burned off. He was then in therapy because he couldn’t walk. As he got older he started to walk again and then when it was 1932 he tried out for a summer Olympics and the 1936 summer Olympics then broke many records and got many nicknames to show how amazing he was.
