Blade Runner

Have you read about the disabled south african guy who is trying to make the south african olympic sprinting team.
Now this guy just goes to prove that there really is nothing so challenging in most people's lives. We have no excuse to not be doing our utmost to get what we want out of life.

Apparantly some officials are looking to change the rules to make him illegible to compete.
I loved this quote from his coaches: 'If you think having carbon-fiber legs will make you a faster sprinter, have the operation and we’ll see you at the track.'
