Pisano achieves goal, completes back-to-back marathons

Jason Pisano achieved one of his most ambitious goals yet last weekend, successfully completing back-to-back marathons.
The West Warwick resident, who has cerebral palsy and races by pushing himself backward in a wheelchair, first finished the Breakers Marathon in Middletown on Oct. 21 with a time of 9 hours, 33 minutes and 23 seconds.
Pisano then headed to Mystic, Conn. the next morning and completed the Mystic Country Marathon in 7:43:22.
They represented races No. 36 and 37 in his quest to finish 50 marathons.
Pisano was featured earlier this week on NBC 10. Click here to see the video clip.
