This story comes from London, England.  We have to go back almost 14 years when Darren Awol’s life changed forever.  He was shot during a robbery.  The attack left him paralyzed from the waist down, and doctors told him he would never walk again.

Can you guess what happened?  Fast forward to TODAY…not only did Darren learn to walk again using crutches……he recently completed the LONDON MARATHON.  He finished it in 6 ½ hours, using a combination of crutches and a wheelchair. Darren says it was through pure determination and non-stop effort. He rehabilitated himself, regained his ability to walk….even without feeling in his legs! 

Darren said his son who was just 2 years old at the time of the shooting, and was his biggest motivation / and inspiration.  HE SAID – this journey is proof that teamwork makes everything come together and it’s a reminder that no matter how tough life gets, with support and belief………..you can accomplish the unimaginable!
