A man who lost both his legs after suffering a seizure and falling onto a New York City subway platform plans to take on a 5K  obstacle course and 6K race this weekend after training with prosthetic legs for a year. 

Roman Leykin, 36, a former tech worker from Brooklyn who was diagnosed with epilepsy as a teenager, was stuck with a seizure while commuting to work in February 2018, the Stamford Advocate reported.
