Justin Zook (born October 16, 1985[1] in Chicago, Illinois[2]) is an American swimmer. He competed at the 2004, 2008 and 2012 Summer Paralympics, and also represented Springfield College in the NCAA Men's Swimming and Diving Championships.[3]
Zook was born missing half his right foot and with non-functioning growth plates in his right leg; 30 operations lengthened his leg but caused nerve damage, muscle weakness and range of motion problems.[3][4] He started swimming as physical therapy at age 6.[5]
As of February 2013[update], Zook holds IPC world records for 100m and 200m backstroke events.[6]
