			<title>The Day Tanni Made Me Fully Understand the Plight of the Paralympian</title>

			<description><![CDATA[I'd wager the happiest most satisfied and relieved person in this  country the morning afterthe night before is Dame Tanni Grey Thompson  the first and original Paralympian. Well OK she isn't quite - Tanni  will be quick to point out that she's not that old and the Games have  been going on since Rome in 1960 - but to this country she was the first  high-profile Paralympic name she won a record-breaking 11 gold medals  which was only equalled last week by the amazing Sarah Storey and she  was made a Dame the first Paralympic Dame. Now that's some achievement in anyone's language but consider this. While the likes of Jonnie Peacock David Weir Ellie SimmondsStorey  et al have been acclaimed by mass sporting crowds packing the London  venues and can look forward to lucrative sponsorships - and quite  rightly so - Tanni remembers how it used to be. I recall many a time  when she told me howin conversation people genuinely believed her  training meant someone else pushing her around a track while she sat in  her chair and enjoyed the view. ]]></description>

			<title>Olly Howick: Witnessing &#39;Unbelievable&#39; Sport</title>
			<link>http://sportsvibe.co.uk/blog/paralympic/olly-howick-witnessing-unbelievable-sport-19541/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[The word 'unbelievable' is banded around all too often particularly when describing goings on in the sporting world. However what happened last night in the Olympic stadium was bordering on the unbelievable and incredible. As the stadium started to fill up to the full capacity of 80000 it was clear the lucky ones who had managed to get tickets for the athletics session were going to be in for a treat. Fortunately I was one of those lucky ones having picked up a couple of tickets on the back of not being able to get in the stadium during the Olympics. The stadium announcer said it himself "I've got a feeling this is going to be the greatest night in Paralympic history. "
The evening session got off to a fast start when Tunisian athlete Khald Mahmoud stormed to victory in the Men's 400m T12 final setting a new World Record of 48. 52s. This was just a taster of what was going to happen later. The first medal of the evening for Paralympic TeamGB came thanks to Ben Rushgrove's personal best run in the Men's 200m T36 final which saw him claim bronze. With plenty more medal opportunities for TeamGB to come the sense of expectation in the crowd was growing by the second. ]]></description>

			<title>The Paralympians Are Household Names After Watershed Week for Disability</title>
			<link>http://sportsvibe.co.uk/sports-insider/paralympic/the-paralympians-are-household-names-after-watershed-week-for-disability-19536/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Jonnie Peacock lost his lower right leg aged five after contracting  meningococcal septicaemia. Fourteen years later he is given a standing  ovation by 80000 people packed insidethe LondonOlympic Stadium after  becoming the 100 metre champion. Moments earlier they were chanting his  name. This morning he has made virtually all of the front pages. A few minutes before Peacock's glorious dash of destiny David Weir  achieved his hat-trick of gold medals with a glorious home straight  sprint in the 800 metres again to a cacophony of noise from the largest  crowd ever amassed to watch Paralympic sport. There were people in the  crowd wearing Weir Wolf masks. The howl of the champion is pushing Mo  Farah's "Mobot" as the craze of the summer. Throw in the wonderful Ellie Simmonds the wonderful Sarah Storey  (now the most successful British Paralympian of all time) the wonderful  Hannah Cockroft and indeed the wonderful Team GB and we have a moment  in time that far exceeds sport. Never again will disabled sport or indeed disabled people be  viewed in the same light. The likes of Peacock and Weir are great  sportsmen full stop. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Cyclist Mark Colbourne has secured Britain's first medal at the London Paralympics by claiming silver in the velodrome this afternoon. Colbourne was riding in the C1-2-3 1km time trial alongside fellow Briton Darren Kenny who just missed out on a medal by finishing in fourth. Colbourne's time of 1 minute and 8. 471 seconds was over 3 seconds slower than the gold medal winner Li Zhang Yu of China who set a world record to claim victory with a time of 1 minute and 5. 021 sceonds. The Great Britain Paralympic cycling team will be hoping for more success in the velodrome later when Sarah Storey will be riding for a chance to win a gold medal in the C5 individual pursuit. Storey is hoping to go one step higher on the podium this time round having won silver in Beijing and she appears on track to do so having beaten her own world record by more than a second in the qualifying heats. ]]></description>

			<title>Excellence is a Habit as Stef Reid Prepares for London 2012</title>

			<description><![CDATA[It was absolutely devastating. Not just because of my age but because I just loved playing sports so much. I was thankful to be alive but I felt as though my life was over. The moment Stefanie Reid is recalling is one that ultimately set her on course to become a genuine medal hope for Great Britain at the London 2012 Paralympics. It was August 2010 and Reid was a 16-year-old who had ambitions of becoming a professional rugby player. A rather surprising career choice for someone growing up in Canada but having been born in New Zealand to British parents her dream was to return to the country of her birth in order to pursue her passion for rugby. However her ambitions were cruelly brought to a dramatic end as Reid was left fighting for her life after a boating accident left her with a deep gash in her back and a severe injury to her right leg. After being rushed to hospital the surgeon saved her life by amputating from the ankle down. Her dreams of a career in sport appeared to be shattered. Yet Reid showed a fighting spirit that would not only define her as an athlete but as a person. ]]></description>
