I am always amazed at how strong the human spirit is and how it can propel people to do extraordinary things.

Wow! That last scene with him standing on his leg with the bike over his head would make a great poster.

I thought I'd bump this back up.

I ran by this guy during the NYC Marathon this weekend. At least I'm pretty sure it was him. It was around mile 22 and he was chugging away on hand crutches and was wearing red shirt. It was roughly 4 and a half hours since the start of the handicapped racers and when I passed and cheered him on he gave me a huge smile and a nod. That guy is something special.
