After having a spinal injury rebuilt in titanium, the author negotiates a tough rehab - and remaining disabilities - by setting big goals: first to swim Boston Harbor at six months, then to complete the Skaha Ultra Distance 11.8K lake swim in British Columbia at 17 months post-op. Literary sports writing constructed of hybrid essays, SKAHA explores what mettle/metal really means in this our embodied condition.
