wow, what a story. Tears to my eyes.

I was actually in NYC last Saturday with the kids and drove past many of these contestants as I was driving south on the west side highway.

This was inspiring. I've started working out daily again since returning to the states.. The NYC marathon is my goal.

That's a heck of a story and it did bring a tear to the eye.

Thanks Fellas for the Kudo's. We all know too well, Prostate Cancer is a tough cancer to get through. Even 16 months later, I still struggle with post-op side affects and it just takes time to heal.

Please pass this along - I am recruiting prostate cancer survivors to join our awareness and fundraising effort in November 2013 --- "Ironman Arizona".

Anyone interested, the link is below. best, -Pete

Great story. Love reading that. I always wanted to run in the NYC Marathon, (or even better try an Ironman, which i am too old for). Unfortunately, arthritic knee with torn ACL never repaired makes it impossible.

Thanks for posting this SHU.

Wow, that is a seriously great accomplishment!

I doubt I could do what he did, but it's a great inspiration that will be on my mind again. I'll start again at the low end (sigh).  The only iron I have at this time is the one in the frying pan.

KUDOS to this Peter.

(and to Casey for promoting fitness in the face of cancer)
