We talk to Thomas about what it\\u2019s like to see your life in film, why mentors are important, and why he\\u2019s excited for the 2021 TCS New York City Marathon as he raises funds for Team Sam, Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy\'s fight to end Duchenne, a progressive, fatal muscle disorder for which there is no cure.
