Thanks to Deborah Ann Woll for the heads up. EJ Scott (her boyfriend) did this video about his training for marathon and it’s incredible how hard he worked. He’s an inspiration.
Here’s a message by EJ below:
Here is footage from my first marathon back in January. I ran in Arizona. I ran through Phoenix, Tempe and Scottsdale with my guide and cousin in law, Janelle. You’ll see me going for my physical about a week before my first marathon.
I am going blind from an eye disease called Choroideremia. My grandfather went blind from it, my brothers got it and my nephews got it. Because of the disease I am running 12 marathons to raise money for a treatment. Not just for me but for everyone that has Choroideremia. Ive been told by doctors that sunlight will make me go blind faster, so I have to run blindfolded to protect what I have. My eyes are also now very sensitive to the sunlight.
