Cool interview. Sadly, it reminds me of another celebral palsy runner who just passed away yesterday, Jason Pisano. Jason finished 52 marathons while pushing himself backwards in a wheelchair. My father said he used to see Jason train with police officers at a high school track, where the police officers would help Jason turn while Jason propelled himself with his one good foot. Jason was also a freelance journalist who would type his articles using his toes.

RIP Jason.
