A Reason to Run

Anton Frazile has been gearing up for his first marathon. He also wants to ride a motorcycle, and can't wait to drive a car. Not unusual for a 15-year-old.
He's going at it all as if he doesn't even know he has cerebral palsy.
Tony Espaillat ran his first marathon a few years ago and swore he'd never do it again. But the kids at the camp where he is a counselor have helped change that. Most recently, Anton gave Tony reason to overcome an appendectomy and a knee injury to run yet again.
These guys make a great team.

** Thanks to Kathy Aji for shining today's spotlight on Anton and Tony.
