The Story Of Running With Zander!

from Meeting Mighty People · host Alexis Folk

I  had the delightful opportunity to interview Zander, who is currently in elementary school in Fernie, BC. He has been part of the Panther’s Running Club at Isabella Dickens School since the day he was eligible in grade 2. What makes Zander’s situation unique is that despite having Cerebral Palsy, he chooses to not let his challenges defeat him. He continues to strive toward his long-term goal of running 100 km in a year. He says “Run on feel good” to keep himself motivated. His recent message to his fellow peers who struggle with their individual differences was something along the lines of: No matter the distance, making it to your ideal landmark for running is something to celebrate and be proud of!
