Wounded Warriors in Central Park Run
I attended the Achilles Track Club Hope & Possibility Race today — a 5 mile run through Central Park for folks with disabilities including war-related injuries. Some of the runners were vets who have benefitted from the support of [The Wounded Warrior Project], a worthy organization I’ve mentioned before. Among the medal winners was above-the-knee amputee Mike McNaughton, pictured far left below — the first amputee soldier from Iraq to run with President Bush at the White House — he finished the course in under 45 minutes. A great way to spend a sunny Sunday morning in the city.


























Now, that is awesome.
