On Your Mark, Get Set, GOLD!

Mark Rohan competed in two hand-cycling races at the 2012 London Paralympics and he won two Gold Medals. He completed his second race this past Friday in just under two hours and won by a two second lead.

Mark and his fellow Paralympians have not let tragedy and ‘lacks’ define them. Rather, Mark and his fellow Paralympians have redefined what it is to be disabled. They have let go of who they were or who they might have been and have embraced who they are. That is true grace.
