The Chicago marathon may be over, but a very inspirational group of runners are preparing for an event that’s taking place next weekend.
"I started 41 years ago in 1982, I think it was November 13th, it was a Saturday, I started running out here," said Felix Coleman, Jr. who is blind. He is propelled by a guide named Brian and a family history of persevering.
The event is sponsored by the Chicago Lighthouse and the Chicago Central Lions Club. The race is focused entirely on accessibility.
