| Summary: |
Clara Hughes is among the greatest athletes ever to come out of Canada, and the only athlete ever to win multiple Olympic medals both in the summer and winter games. At first glance, hers is a life of fantasy and accomplishment, but as Hughes well knows, depression can be insidious and debilitating. There may be little that a former athlete can do to cure the depression of millions, but there is a lot she can do to bring the issue to the fore. Hughes intends to ride her bike across Canada to raise awareness about depression, and encourage people to talk about mental health. |
