True athletes

The New York Times has an audio slide show on 28 disabled war veterans (many fought in Iraq) who ran the N.Y.C. Marathon yesterday - all 28 finished. Some lost their limbs less than a year ago, and they ran a marathon! Go to this link and look for "Among the Finishers" - it's worth it.
