to help raise funds for charity.
1. No matter how fast he runs during the race, he cannot overtake
the runner in last place who is very slow. Why?
2. Just before crossing the finish line, he overtakes the runner in
second place. Did he, or did he not, finish the race in first place?
3. Why is the blind man, with his physical disability, able to compete
in the race?

finish first.
