Well done Paul!

Thanks to Paul for reminding us that common decency is applicable everywhere; especially in the field of competition.

Title: Re: Nice article in DesNews Sports about Paul P Post by: Sasha Pachev on June 24, 2010, 10:18:27 am The article mentioned Seth's condition (type 1 diabetis), which I did not know about. But it neglected to mention Paul's (Ankylosing Spondylitis ). So I posted a comment there to keep things in balance. If Seth and Paul can run a sub-1:06 (without the wrong turn) half, and Albert Wint (missing flap in a heart valve) can run sub-2:30 marathon with their conditions, it shows that those conditions can be worked around with faith and persistence. Do not give up if you have one.
