At 18 years old, Victoria Nolan found out she was going blind. As
her vision became more restricted, so did her independence. Her
childhood dream had been to become a teacher, but she had to fight
constantly against misconceptions about her capabilities as a
visually impaired person. Even starting a family meant risking
further vision loss, and as she struggled to deal with her
disability, her goals for the future seemed impossible. Not wanting
her children to grow up seeing their mother as someone who
"couldn't," she sought opportunities to prove herself. That's when
she started rowing. Discovering her competitive fire, Victoria made
the Canadian National Adaptive Rowing Team in 2007. In this
collection of reflections on and off the water, Victoria Nolan
travels the world winning medals and breaking records. This
personal story of triumph will inspire as she describes her
frustration, her hard work, and her growing sense of
accomplishment.
