Summary

Rick Hoyt tells the story of his life and the challenges he has had to face and overcome since being born with cerebral palsy and having to use a wheelchair. With the help of his family and his teachers he did normal things kids do when growing up--family camping trips, public school and gym class. Then he and his father found their passion--running. Together they ran in everything they could, from local road races to the Boston Marathon (27 times!) to a Trek Across America to raise money and the awareness that buildings need to be accessible for people with disabilities
