Kayla Montgomery started her life as an athlete. She was a star player on her soccer team with school. Then she found out she had a disease that usually leaves people unable to stand. But that didn't stop her from chasing her dream.

When she was taken to the hospital, she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Kayla began to have no feelings in her legs and became extremely depressed. But she refused to give up and began running slow to fast. Eventually becoming the fastest girl in her state. Probably one of the most inspirational stories you will ever hear. She will not forget these competitions or how much her coach has helped her through it all.

Now that she is done competing, she can always look back and say when she was able to run through the disease, she gave it her all. God bless this woman! She has the heart of a lion.
