“Hey Nonny!” called my friend Rafi in yeshivah. “Who’s gonna be running you in the marathon?” “I don’t know yet ” I said. “ProbablyGavrielFarber.” I don’t like imposing on people. If someone was going to push my wheelchair all the way to the finish line (because this was a marathon powered by people and not by electric wheelchairs and I was not a cheater!) then it ought to be someone getting paid to do it. Gavriel often has off on Sundays the day of the marathon but I was sure he’d want to come anyway.
