About this Video

This profile video showcases Dave Fraser’s 14th New York City Marathon finish as an AWD (athlete with disabilities). Dave self-propels himself in his wheelchair, usually backward, for all 26.2 miles through the five boroughs.

Backstory

Each year, a friend of mine, Mike, guides Dave through the race. He pitched me on the idea of a video that documented what it takes for Dave to self-propel himself for a full marathon. It was an easy decision to take this story on. This is one of my favorite videos to make, not because I did anything special, but because Dave is so incredible and inspirational.
