Patrick Pressgrove was born with a rare genetic disorder which left him wheelchair-bound by age 13 when he decided to have elective bilateral above-knee amputations. In 2015, he was encouraged by his prosthetic clinician and a fellow patient, Mark Barr, to begin using a pair of running blades he was granted from the Challenged Athletes Foundation a year before...and he hasn't looked back since. Now an integral part of Team Catapult, Patrick has run everything from a 5K to a marathon and has completed sprint triathlons and a half Ironman.
