Alana Nichols - Three-Time Paralympic Gold Medalist On Being a Champion No Matter What - a podcast by REI Co-op

Alana Nichols was on her way to college on a softball scholarship when she attempted a flip snowboarding, and landed directly on a rock on her back. She suffered a spinal cord injury that left her paraplegic. Instead of giving up sports altogether, Alana transitioned to adaptive sports, quickly becoming a top Olympic competitor in skiing, wheelchair basketball and sprint kayaking.
