Me too! We know how hard running is. But, to be dealt such a horrible blow and be able to even convince yourself to get out of bed every day in itself is bloody amazing. But then to face every demon there is and push yourself to achieve what these amazing people are doing is mindblowing. I found myself in tears at one point!

Agree 100%. Wish we had tickets as the games are here in Toronto. These people have all my respect. It's all about perspective isn't it?
