Yeah my gf and I were on the ECT last week and he passed us going the other way. We were impressed for sure.

Great story and such an inspiration! My sore knee doesn't feel so bad after all when I see what others have to deal with and overcome.

Tremendous man, his determination to do the things we take for granted is remarkable and inspiring. I've read a few articles and seen a news item about him, just incredible.
