Blade Runner Making Recovery

Double-amputee sprinter Oscar Pistorius, known by many as the 'Blade Runner', is soon expected to be moved out of the Intensive Care Unit in a Johannesburg, South Africa hospital after he sustained injuries to his head and face during a boating accident Saturday.

Pistorius is still hoping to compete in the 100-m and 400-m events at the Paralympic World Championships in Manchester, England in May, pending his full recovery and medical clearance, according to his manager, Peet van Zyl.   

The sprinter missed qualifying for the 2008 Beijing Olympics in the 400 m sprint by .7 seconds. 

Here's a cool Nike commercial I found on YouTube of Pistorius from before the Beijing Olympics:
