Ian Walker was an avid Football fan , referee and coach but in early December 2006 his life took an unexpected turn. Until then he was running marathons and was a nationally ranked football (soccer), referee.
On that Wednesday morning he got on his road cycle and went for a ride during which he cycled head first into the rear of a truck and trailer resulting in me suffering a spinal cord injury at T3/4 (mid thoracic) level and requiring a wheelchair for mobility.
This was a huge body blow, being no longer able to use his legs. However life must and does go on and he soon realised that this was his new normal and it was better for me to get on with life.
The issue for him was to replace my running with another activity.
He discovered handcycling and fell in love with it as it enables him to continue with his love of long distance physical exertions.
Since then he has successfully completed the TCS New York City Marathon and Buller Gorge Marathon twice each and the ASB Christchurch City Marathon once.
He now lives his life to the following creed ‘do not let what you cannot do stop you from doing what you can’. This is, he believes, a mindset that all can adopt as life is what you make it.

Charlie Engles is definitely one of my all time great heroes. His life has not been without it's dramas and failures but he is undoubtedly one of the strongest human beings of our times in mind and body.
He is one of the most accomplished ultramarathon runners in the world and author of the riveting memoir Running Man. Engle has a track record of winning or placing in many of the toughest endurance foot races across the globe. He has raced in jungles, summited high ranging mountains and volcanoes, and traversed large expanses of deserts through sand storms. Among his most notable races in the United States is the Badwater Ultramarathon which he has run 7 times placing usually in the top 5.
Beginning in the 1990s into the early 2000s, Engle competed in the Eco-Challenge series put on by Mark Burnett (the creator of the wildly popular CBS television series, Survivor). The Eco-Challenge took Engle to Borneo, New Zealand, and Vietnam. The list of Engle's international races is long, but he is most well known for running across the Sahara Desert, from coast to coast, in 2007. Engle's historic and record setting journey was documented in the film Running the Sahara, narrated by Matt Damon. He was joined by two other runners: Ray Zahab of Canada and Kevin Lin of Taiwan. This transcontinental run through deep sand and politically unstable countries remains one of the premier accomplishments in the ultrarunning sport. The runners completed over 4,500 miles, averaging over two marathons per day, for 111 consecutive days.
Engle's motivation to run and tackle adventure to such extreme lengths stems from his battle with addiction to drugs and alcohol. Sober since July 23, 1992, he has credited a large part of his sobriety to the purposeful devotion and emotional release he experiences while running.
