#tbt Long Island Run For The Warriors® 2012


This Sunday is the 7th Annual Long Island Run For The Warriors® in Lindenhurst, Long Island. This photo is from the 2012 race and features two ReWalkers, who participated in the Spinal Cord Damage Research Center at the James J Peters VA Medical Center in Bronx, NY. The ReWalk is a robot-assisted exoskeleton and permits a person with motor-complete paraplegia to stand, walk over ground, and ascend/descend stairs. It was an emotional experience for everyone in the community to be part of.

For more information on the Run, visit the official race site. We hope you all will join us!
