"Duct Tape and Determination is the unexpected story of Jacky Hunt-Broersma, who is forced to find courage and determination, inviting the reader to do as she does: Just keep going. A truly inspiring read for striving under any passion or craft." --DEENA KASTOR, Olympic medalist and New York Times bestselling author of Let Your Mind Run
Struggle. Overcome. Inspire.
For Jacky Hunt-Broersma, a cancer diagnosis in her mid-twenties brought a life-changing challenge: a below-the-knee amputation. Navigating her new reality, Jacky first kept her difference hidden as she learned to walk and do daily activities using a prosthesis. Years later, inspired by her husband's passion for races, Jacky started to run--and hasn't stopped since. Two decades after losing her leg, she ran 104 marathons in 104 consecutive days, setting a world record.
Duct Tape and Determination is more than a running memoir--it's a story of turning pain into purpose. With honesty and humor, Jacky shares the highs and lows of her journey: the blisters and breakdowns, the finish lines and triumphs, and the duct tape fixes that kept her moving forward.
Her story proves that persistence, positivity, and grit can take you farther than you ever imagined--wherever it is you're hoping your life will take you.
"Jacky Hunt-Broersma pulls you in from the very first mile, taking you from cancer patient to internationally recognized runner with heart and humor. Her story is a powerful reminder how life-changing simply putting one foot in front of the other can be." --Dimity McDowell, cohost of Another Mother Runner and author of The 27th Mile: How to Smooth the Rough Transition Out of Your Running Years
