Unique Peachtree City Toga Trot features Walkers with Spinal Cord Injuries
8/4/08 (5:19
p.m.) You were in an accident, and as you lie in your
hospital bed, you are told you will never walk again. Imagine being given that
prognosis. Now imagine working for years in a grueling regime of physical
therapy, putting the rest of your life on hold, just to be able to prove that
prognosis wrong. What sort of goals would you set? Standing or maybe taking a
few aided steps? How about a one-mile race? That’s the goal Justin Campagna, who
has suffered a debilitating spinal cord injury, has set for himself. And he will
get that opportunity at a unique race debuting in Peachtree City on Sept. 6.
The Peachtree City Toga Trot 5K & 1-mile walk is unique because, as the name
implies, it will feature the city's first race with runners and walkers in
togas. The "Greek" theme stems from the starting and ending point of the race,
the Phi Mu Fraternity's national headquarters located on Westpark Drive. One of
the co-sponsors of the race is ASCAPA (Atlanta Southern Crescent Alumnae
Panhellenic Association) representing 26 international women's sororities and
fraternities, which are Greek letter societies of college women and alumnae, who
are raising money for their scholarship fund. They are joined in the effort by
the Rotary Club of Peachtree City, which is raising money for the Rotary Polio
Plus foundation dedicated to the elimination of polio worldwide.

Trot, turns in his application to Race Director George Martin
But the real reason this race is unique is because of athletes like Justin as
well as Trevor Akers and Tremaine Nathan. All three young men suffered spinal
cord injuries and were told they would never walk again. And yet all three will
participate in this year's inaugural Toga Trot, each competing in the 1-mile
walk. That’s right, the 1-mile walk! All three are clients of the
internationally known Center IMT Atlanta, located in Fayetteville. Center IMT
Atlanta is a physical therapy practice, directed by Susan Leger, which has
pioneered the use of innovative integrative manual therapy techniques combined
with sophisticated electronic equipment to show remarkable results in spinal
cord injury rehabilitation. And while all three young men will compete on at
least a portion of the course in wheelchairs, they will also walk a portion of
the course depending on their own personal levels of progress. And all three
will walk across the finish line.
Of course, the race is open to runners of all abilities and ages. Awards will be
given to the top three runners in 14 different age groups, with those running or
walking in togas receiving a special award. Don't have a toga? Not a problem as
togas will be custom fit and sold prior to the race start.
The inaugural Peachtree City Toga Trot will begin and end at Phi Mu
Headquarters, located at 401 Westpark Drive, at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Sept 6, with
a post-race party at Partners Pizza. More information and applications are
available at the ASCAPA website,
