Finishing a marathon is a challenging task for anyone. Running 26.2 miles takes a tremendous amount of determination, preparation and willpower. But for Baylor sophomore Ricardo Benitez, who ran a marathon on Sunday, it was an even more incredible accomplishment.
Benitez was born without both of his femurs.
He said that people have always tried to put him “in a cage” by telling him what he can and cannot be, what he can and cannot do. Benitez let out a massive yell once he crossed the finish line, which he said was directed at his doubters.
