But despite the injuries, Ennis maintained her desire to be the best. After years of surgeries and physical therapy, she discovered extreme sports as a way to recover. Now she's one of the world's best-known Wounded Warriors. Through her courage, she's climbed mountains, does extreme snowboarding and more. Ennis was featured on the cover of the 2017 ESPN: The Magazine Body Issue.
