Doug Levy is a lifelong sports buff who worked several years as a sports reporter, sports columnist, and news reporter for The (Vancouver) Columbian and the Tri-City Herald, among others.
"Doug Levy's well-researched book contains... Olympic stories of courage." —Sebastian Coe, two-time gold medalist, set twelve track-and-field world records.
What does it mean to be a hero—in sports and in life?
Heroes aren’t just the ones who bring home medals. Hero Redefined delves into the lesser-known stories of Olympic athletes—and a couple of special Olympic venues—that challenge the conventional narrative of glory and gold. In riveting personal profiles exploring herculean feats of strength, perseverance, and sportsmanship, award-winning sports journalist Doug Levy offers a new vision of heroism. There is more than one path to greatness, and the extraordinary acts of resilience and personal sacrifice by these athletes have left an indelible mark on the spirit of the Olympic games in quiet but fundamental ways through the ages.
Each chapter reveals a different face of heroism—immense resilience, strength of character, unparalleled sportsmanship, an incredible zeal to compete, and a seemingly superhuman will to finish. Throughout, Levy celebrates the heroic human spirit and its relentless drive to carry the torch forward—both inside and outside of the Olympic Games.
