This is my uncle.
He is blind, but that has never held him back. He has participated in Paralympic Winter games, various othe skiing contests, and last year, he became the first blind man to run the world's toughest race - Arctic Circle Race - 160 kilometers in 3 days in Greenland.
Now he is preparing to be the first ever blind person to ski the Last Degree to the North Pole.
Oh... and did I mention his age... 64... He is one of the most inspiring people I know, and I'm so proud of him.
