Tamar Ben-Ozer reports in the JPost that Simon Kindleysides, 34, of Norfolk, England, became the first paralyzed man to finish the London Marathon this week. He walked the entire 26.2 mile course in 36 hours with the help of the ReWalk robotic exoskeleton suit, developed in Israel.
In 2012, Claire Lomas became the first paraplegic to complete the course (with the help of ReWalk) in 17 days.
