This Dad Pushed His Son Through a Marathon

Mike Medved is a dad of three, middle school history teacher, musician, former professional basketball player in Europe, and the father of Simon, his oldest son, who has severe cerebral palsy. Earlier this year, Mike pushed Simon through the Pittsburgh Marathon. But this story was never really about the marathon. It was about a dad making sure his son was part of the adventure. Into the crowd. Into the city. Into the noise. Into the miles. This episode of Go West follows Mike, Simon, and the Medved family through training, music, fatherhood, and 26.2 miles of perspective.
