100% not the same story.

I didn't want to say it since Nimbus seemed so sincere in his response.

Properly adapting this story for the screen would require an Avataresque budget.

The Bone Cage by Angie Abdou

It's about two athletes on their way to the Olympics. Really good so far, I'm about half way through.

after struggling personally the last few years with anxiety/depression I made it a mission to learn more about meaning, evolutional psychology (why we are the way we are), positive psychology (which isn't just positive affirmations, but a slant on Psychology that emphazies "the good things, e.g. happiness", not just psychosis/disorders that fill the DSM-IV), and personal development in general.

being a novice in the above arenas I try to make selections from authors who dedicated their lives in an academic environment, not someone who just picked up on the latest "buzz words" and are just trying to sell books.

I started with Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning" and his concept of logotherapy. I revist that book often.

Amazon.com: Man's Search for Meaning (9780807014271): Viktor E. Frankl: Books

Have you ever read any Oliver Sacks? I find his writing absolutely fascinating.
The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat and An Anthroplogist on Mars are GREAT reads.

I pwned some sweet valley high/college when I was younger. My parents still have all those books in a couple of boxes in their basement.

lol...I was obviously joking about reading that right now..but I read all of those too... especially since I could relate as a twin. My parents got rid of all of mine... Did you read R.L Stine too? I bet you did I know I did.
