Michael Oliver's Race In the Special Olympics

Michael Oliver Ponce competed in the Special Olympics back in 1992, when he was 11 years old. Ponce ran the 100 meter dash against other mentally-challenged children and finished in 3rd place with a time of 15.2 seconds. Here is a picture of Ponce that was taken during his race. He sure looks happy, doesn't he? I'll bet he ran right into the caring arms of Big Ben Healy at the end of the race!
