I was at my car dealership earlier today and they were covering the Olympics. When the 400 meter came on, even the salespeople gathered round and we were all cheering for Oscar! What an inspiration!

I do not think his blades give an unfair advantage. The rest of his body has to over compenstate for the fact that he is missing his lower limbs. Whatever "advantage" the carbon blades give him, he loses with his balance and his body having to work harder because he doesn't have those muscles that would have worked with him.


YEAH Oscar! I hope you medal! Even if you don't, you are a wonderful inspiration and role model!
