Simply amazing performance in the paralympics

I haven't watched much of it to be honest, but this is incredible...


Former swimmer Sarah Storey gained revenge on US rider Jennifer Schuble, with a world individual pursuit record of three minutes 36.637 seconds.

In last month's Olympics Britain's Rebecca Romero - another dual sport medallist - won the event in 3:28.321.

"I can't quite believe I've gone 3:36. That would have got me a top eight place at the Olympics," said Storey.

"The fact that a Paralympian can finish in that sort of time and that sort of position is amazing.




That was in the Women's individual pursuit (LC 1-2/CP 4), which i think means she has Cerebal Palsy (the lowest level of severity), and the lowest level of Locomotor Disability. Stunning performance from Sarah Storey!

I'm not trying to be controversial here ... but do they do drug testing in the paralympics ??

Yes they do i seem to remember a yank and several others testing positive in 2000?

cheers for that js, i know not all disabled people need medication, but surely someone who has Palsy must need some drugs to control their condition :unsure:
