The Eleven-Minute Mile. Some doctors thought he might never even walk. Now he runs a mile every day and over the past year, 7-year-old Doran Scotson has been aiming for a time of 11 minutes. Not beyond many boys of his age: but Doran is different. Severe jaundice at birth damaged his brain leaving him horribly handicapped. Doran and his mother Linda have one singular ambition; by extraordinary effort to achieve ordinary progress.
But there is nothing ordinary about one of the year's most moving stories of love, determination and courage.
