Mark Maloney was told he would never walk again. On Monday, not only will he walk, but he’ll trek the final kilometer — 1,000 feet or 0.62 miles — of the Bolder Boulder with the assistance of a special walker.
An 87-year-old Vietnam veteran, Maloney spent 22 years in the Army, serving in Vietnam and as a logistics specialist across the world. After his years in the Army, Maloney lived an active lifestyle.
“The last thing I remember was seeing a huge boulder and I must have just hit that boulder at around 20 miles an hour with my face,” Maloney said of the accident. “I’ve been working with Mark now for two years, and he’s a very motivated person,” said Brooke Hjeltnes, one of Maloney’s physical therapists.
