Excerpt
When Mario Rigby decided to walk from Cape Town, South Africa, to Cairo, Egypt, the first person he told was his mother — and she supported his journey 100 percent.
“She even went as far as saying that if I broke my leg, I should become the first person to cross Africa by wheelchair,” Rigby said.
Thank goodness he didn’t break his leg.
