Heart attack and previous shark attack won't stop Harvey Miller from running the Honolulu Marathon
The Honolulu Marathon is this Sunday, and for one runner, the race is something he thought he couldn't do following a recent health scare.
Harvey Miller suffered a heart attack while on a training run. A few months have passed, and he's been given the "OK" from doctors to run again.
He told KITV4 he'll pay close attention to the signals his body is giving him, because his goal is to cross the finish line on December 8.
"I'm learning a lot, you know, about listening. And you still want to push because we're athletic right? But its also important to stay alive," said Miller.
It’s not the first time Harvey has been determined to defy the odds against him. He nearly lost his leg following a shark attack in 2007.
After recovering from that -- he's run two other marathons.
