Schabort, who lost both legs as a corporal in the South African Army when his unit came under attack in 1987 in the Angola Border war, became a U.S. citizen in 2009. A 6-time Paralympian—including the triathlon in 2016—Schabort has also competed in Hawaii’s famed Ironman Triathlon. On July 4, Schabort finished 10th in the AJC Peachtree Road Race, in what was likely the deepest non-marathon field in road-racing history.
