What a wonderful inspiring story. I wish I could do something like that...I have a bad back (I had surgury for it in 2008) and can't run but walking is fine as long as I take it easy. I think I should start a walking marathon for people like myself...you wouldn't have to walk a timed, race just need to finish. I know there are walking clubs and need to find one in my area. Keep up the good work and congradulations.

Dawnr- Disney races are great for walkers!! You need to stay at a 16min/mile pace, but there are TONS of walkers!!! And what great fun too!!
