I was born with Cerebral Palsy. It causes me to walk a bit irregular and limits my balance. I've had a couple corrective surgeries to limit spasticity. The earliest of them being done when I was 4 years old.
Later on in life I realized that despite having limitations I could still exercise and lift weights. When I turned 29 I decided to run a marathon, which is 26.2 miles. I trained for 3 months, running 4 times a week and entered the equinox marathon in Fairbanks Alaska. It took me roughly 14hrs to finish it. I then proceeded to finish 2 other marathons (Honolulu & L.A.) before throwing in the towel.
