A little bit of everything. The guys back home were trying to get me into basketball, which I played basketball before. But it’s so interesting that you don’t always connect with your previous things, or activities or hobbies. And since then, it was so interesting that I got into handcycling. And I was a runner before, I ran cross country in college and track and field, and one of my lifelong goals was to run a marathon. And I used to pray sometimes and ask God you know, “I still want to fulfill that, I still want to run a marathon. How can I do that?” And our rehabilitation hospital had a clinical trial that, exercise and disability, and the exercise that they did was hand cycling. And I got into hand cycling, and less than a year later, I did my first marathon. So, I completed my marathon.
