A new article has been uploaded into our law library. A former quadriplegic finished an Ironman triathlon, consisting of a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a marathon. Thirty-year-old John Carson retired from the sport after participating in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho’s Ironman.
Carson was training on his bicycle when a SUV hit him from behind, just two years ago. Next thing he knew, he was in
intensive care unit as a quadriplegic.
Carson continued his rehabilitation and made plans to complete a triathlon using a hand-powered bike and a racing wheelchair. He said he made the choice in part to show his family that “no matter what, I’m going to be O.K. I’m going to be me again. That’s how my training started.”
Slowly, Carson began to walk again and finished Ironman just one year after the
bicycle accident.
