Read more about Ben Baltz in this 2014 Runner’s World profile or a 2015 piece on Today, in which article his difficulty in affording the cost of racing prosthetics is discussed. There’s a Strike link, sort of.
And, no, I wasn’t able to find any more recent mention of the young man, now in his mid to late 20s, than this undated picture on the International Paralympic Committee website.
