[Story]He can't run well, but he can walk... averaging almost 40 miles a day for the last 74 days! Bill has Parkinson's, but didn't let that stop him!

Bill Bucklew of Wilmette, IL can’t run well anymore, but he can still walk…

He was diagnosed with early onset Parkinson’s disease in 2012 at age 43, however, symptoms started long before and went improperly diagnosed for 7 years. Determined to find a cure for the disease, to inspire those affected by it and help educate those who aren’t, on November 24th, Bill will attempt to walk 2 marathons a day, every day, across the United States, walking and talking with people that have been affected by Parkinson’s about their experiences with the disease.
