As the Chevron Houston Marathon approaches, and Mother Nature attempts to thwart your training plans with wicked freezing weather, please consider the challenges faced by The Woodlands Running Club Member, Andy Sullman.Below is a great article capturing the story of Andy Sullman, as the 19-year old runner suffers from cerebral palsy, but has transformed his life through running. Andy recently completed the Texas Marathon on January 1, 2010, in a time of 4:13:46, a huge personal best. Previously, he had run 4:24:06 at the 2009 Rock 'n' Roll San Antonio Marathon and a 4:55:59 at the 2009 Chevron Houston Marathon. At the start of this decade, Andy has dropped his marathon personal best by over 40-minutes in less than 18 months!
Andy will be chasing a sub-4:00:00 Marathon at the 2010 Chevron Houston Marathon, and has a charity entry into the 2010 Boston Marathon. Anyone interested in supporting Andy's goal to compete in the 2010 Boston Marathon, please visit his fundraising page at Team Eye & Ear.
