Sharing From: Fox 5 DC & MyFoxDC - Blind Runner, Jerry Gatton, Wins Silver Metals in All Three Events



You might remember Jerry, a runner determined to make it to the finish line despite the fact that he is blind. His story last year touched our hearts, and many of yours. Well on Friday, he competed in the Special Olympics Spring Games at Leonardtown High School, and won silver metals in ALL THREE of his events. Way to go Jerry! Watch his story again here: Blind Runnerand Coach Build Special Bond on the Track

We're also proud to announce that our own Beth Parker FOX 5 DC and photographer Chip Baysden were honored with the Edward R. Murrow Award for Best Feature Reporting on Jerry's story. Congratulations!
