Snowboarder Chris Klug recalls his amazing adventure in 2002 Olympics

Just 19 months after receiving a liver via transplant, U.S. snowboarder Chris Klug won a bronze medal at Park City in the 2002 Olympics. Now, on the 10th anniversary of those Salt Lake City Games, Klug's life is full of new adventures, including fatherhood and a desire to climb the Seven Summits -- the highest peaks on all seven continents. But when he thinks back to the day of his medal race in 2002, he can remember it all with crystal clarity, including the way snow fell on a brilliant, sunny day. His story, for the U.S. Olympic website: http://www.teamusa.org/news/2012/02/15/chris-klugs-triumph-after-transplant/46664?ngb_id=3
