Day 3: everyday idol: Athlete Oscar Pistorius

Oscar Pistorius is referred to as a disabled runner. Physically disabled, but super enabled in spirit.

He started running 4 years ago to recover from a rugby injury. Yes - you read that right - a disabled rugby player who switches to competitive running to “recover”. Months later he won the 200 meters at the Athens Paralympics.

Everyday Idols…

A little late to the party, but I am officially thing-ing starting today. Here’s some background on my thing:

Inspiring people are everywhere but we dont hear about them as often as we might like.  Pop culture “idols” who are so good at being crazy and embarrassing themselves, that we cant help but watch their trainwrecks  - are everywhere, even in places where we should be hearing  real news. So the true idols dont get much airtime.

I’d like to change that, at least for myself, so that’s my thing a day. www.everydayidols.com
First idol TK shortly
