Nev Schulman to Run NYC Marathon Months After Neck Injury

The 'Catfish' creator will guide blind runner Francesco Magisano, marking his seventh marathon after a remarkable recovery.

Nev Schulman broke his neck in a cycling accident in August, suffering fractures to his C5 and C6 vertebrae.
Following emergency spinal surgery and a challenging recovery, Schulman was cleared to run by mid-September.
Despite initial doubts, Schulman committed to guiding blind triathlete Francesco Magisano in the marathon.
The pair undertook an intensive eight-week training regimen to prepare for the November 3 event.
Schulman's participation highlights his resilience and dedication to supporting athletes with disabilities through the Achilles International Foundation.
