theeverdream | He's totally Steve McGarrett's hero.

Did anybody see Matt Long on The Daily Show today (or technically yesterday - the 16th)? Apparently there's an actor with that name but that's not him; he's the author of The Long Run and founder of the I Will foundation. And if you Google him be forewarned that if you're sensitive to details of physical injury you might not want to look too much in depth. Summary: New York firefighter, did marathons, absolutely horrible accident that he only survived due to prayer and being at peak physical condition, now is doing marathons again and basically being all-around incredibly inspiring.
