A tale on the Paralympian, Johnnie Peacock – Dedicated to all the Athletes at @ParalympicsGB taking part in the Rio Olympiad

It’s not just the short burst of speed
It’s not the ability for opponents to fear your name
It’s not the fancy kit that makes you fast
No –
Its all that work that you put in
(Not only in the training gym)
The time you give up to make you win
How far you go – it’s down to you
but at home we’re all cheering the things that you do
in front of our TVs were all stuck like glue
So when you look down the Golden Track
when the pistol sounds – there’s no looking back
Chasing those medals and records of old
(Bronze, Silver and of course Gold)
