I've been meaning to do this for a couple of weeks now.
I guess that work with end of the year deadlines simply got in the way.
But that is all behind me now...
As the snow falls here in Columbus, OH it is hard to think about running.
However, December's Athlete of the Month is someone who is a runner. Truly a POWERHOUSE on two legs even after his clotting incident and serious back surgery.
JOHN HNAT has a very impressive and inspiring story that he updates on his very own blog.
After reading through his various posts I cannot even attempt to match the intensity of this guy let alone the mileage he has been able to thrown down. I can't even pretend to understand how he does it.
From his blog site above the following post describes his adventure and inspiring story...please read on...
Here is hoping that John continues his progress towards a full recovery and that I get the fortune to run alongside him someday in the near future. We have the OH connection going for us and of course the deeper connection of being associated with blood clots. Who knows perhaps down the road if the stars align properly you may find a tandem of CLOT BUSTER polka-dot wearing guys at a race near you...
On this Holiday Season I wish that the new year upon us allows me to post another story about John running away from his blood clotting incident and look back at it as something he was able to overcome and did not slow him down.
Please read John's story and be inspired by his talented writing and wisdom from personal experience!
Thanks for reading.
The Clot Buster
