Para Atheletes

Name the professional athletes you respect the most and why.

To be honest all athletes deserve respect but in my eyes the Para Athletes are the ones that deserve it the most. To already be challenged with life changing issues whatever they may be, to then push yourself to exceed in an activity that even the most physically active individual would find extremely challenging shows the sheer bravery, commitment and pure guts that separates them from everyone else.

We should look up to them as shining examples of how to overcome adversity and all the challenges life throws at you, and not only to succeed but exceed in everything they do.

Modern day superheroes and shining examples of everything good about human spirit.

Not empowered by money or fame, just pure mental strength and proving the point that everything is possible if you commit to it.

Love them all.
