Inspiring Journey: Lloyd Martin’s Marathon Adventures Capture Hearts in New York
Lloyd Martin, a 20-year-old runner with Down’s syndrome, won over crowds in the New York Marathon, just months after setting a world record at his first-ever marathon in London. Martin established himself as the youngest runner in his category to finish a marathon earlier this year. Though he didn’t surpass his London time due to frequent dance breaks that delighted fellow spectators, he relished the experience. His mother, Ceri Hooper, expressed immense pride in Lloyd’s achievements, noting his aspiration to compete in all six major global marathons.
