Link Farm: May 17 – Inspiration edition

Anyone can run if they want to.  Some have to want it more than others.  When someone tells you that they’d like to run but they just can’t, share these with them:

Claire Lomas was paralyzed from the chest down after a horse-riding accident in 2007, but this year she finished the London Marathon.  It took her 16 days.  She did it in a ReWalk bionic suit.

Arthur Boorman was injured in the Gulf War.  Doctors told him he’d never walk without assistance, and for15 years, he believed them.  Then he took charge.  Watch the video.

Then there’s this ad for the Canadian Paralympics.  No special effects, but plenty of technology.

And if more conventional inspirational images are your thing, Tumblr is a great source.

And you can find all kinds of amazing race video on YouTube:
