Ashley Fiolek is kicking up dirt

“Ashley Fiolek’s incredible story perfectly embodies the adage ‘the only thing that deaf people can’t do is hear.’ Fiolek is an inspiration to anyone who has a barrier to overcome. My hands are waving in the air, and I’m screaming for her; this book should not be missed.” —Marlee Matlin

She is the best because she is tough. Last race of last year, she only needed 11th to win the national season championship. She wrecked and broke her collarbone. She got up, got going and finished 7th. 4 days later they put a plate and six screws together in surgery.
