Teen sets XC personal best with guide dog in tow

  • How to live every day like it's your last: A lesson from Zach Sobiech
Last year, the Lexington girls cross-country team welcomed two unbelievable new members: Sami Stoner, who is legally blind, and Chloe, her golden retriever guide dog.

 

Sami is a long-time runner, you see, but when she was diagnosed with a form of macular degeneration during her eighth grade year, she knew she wasn’t going to let a disease keep her from running through life.

 

“If you love something enough,” she says, “then you’ll find a way to do it.”

 

During her first race with Chloe, she set a personal record. Since then, she’s become a local celebrity and frequent inspirational speaker at local events. And now, Sami is the first sanctioned athlete to complete with a guide dog in the sport in the state of Ohio, and she’s not stopping her XC career in high school.

 

USA Today reports that Sami hopes to compete in college on Otterbein University’s team with Chloe by her side. Take a look at Sami and Chloe’s accomplishments below, thanks to ABC News…

 


We think Sami’s determination is incredibly inspiring, and we’ll be cheering the duo on for years to come. What do you think of Sami’s story?

recently i used Nair on my boobs, I only used it around my nipples because it was the only place with dark hair, is it going to affect my growth or anything? ps what are other ways to get rid of hair on your boobs?

 

Hey! I'm not sure, but my guess is they wouldn't be able to sell a product that would affect you like that, so it's probably fine. To be sure you'd have to ask a doctor. Other options are waxing and shaving (very carefully). Hair on the chest is common though, so I wouldn't recommend going to too much trouble to remove it.

I think Sami's story is so amazing because not many people have the strength like Sami does to have something that horrible happen to them but is still able to get up every day with a smile on their face and work incredibly hard to do the thing that they love; it is incredibly inspiring.
