Edison Pena, the Chilean miner trapped under ground for two months in 2010, captivated the world when we learned he ran 3-6 miles a day during the period he was trapped. He was invited (and finished) to run in last year's New York City Marathon. He made rounds on the talk show circuit and was seen"around the world".
The past year though has not been all "peaches and cream " for Mr. Pena . Drug and alcohol problems plagued him. He checked himself into a psychiatric hospital to deal with his issues. And on top of all this he has been suffering through pain in his knees. Tough stuff!
But he has persevered and will be running this year's marathon. Good for you.
Remember Edison....One day at a time .
