Check out this unbelievable article about Zhang Huimin, an 8 year old marathon runner from Lingao, China.
I found this article on a trail running blog created by ultra-runner Scott Dunlap. This article is from CentreDaily.com and was originally written by Evan Osnos for the Chicago Tribune.
Is this story a testimony of the human spirit and drive to perform your best? Or is this the story of an overzealous father and an over-trained young girl? You be the judge... post your comments and let us know.
This is a slightly older story dated May 2007, but I just couldn't pass it up.

Please note: Zhang Huimin is now 8 years old, at the time of this article she was 7.
