Runner Breaks Leg, Crawls To Finish Linehttp://www.myfoxcleveland.com/myfox/pag ... 1.1&sflg=1
Driven by determination, a local runner from Burton Township, breaks her leg during a cross country meet, but still makes it across the finish line.
Claire Markwardt is a cross country runner for the Berkshire High School track team. She was participating in the Ohio state high school cross country championship in Columbus November third, then had plans to be maid of honor at her sister's wedding that evening.
"I was fine until about 200 meters away and then it started to hurt and then it cracked a couple times," says Claire. The amazing finish was captured by several cameras.
