Going to be gold and silver for Morocco in the women's T12 marathon (visually impaired), where the silver medal winner is running with a one-armed guide  

 

Have not seen that before, a guide who also has an impairment.

High winds out at the lake are making steering a bit....eventful  for some of the canoe paddlers.

Italy won a medals in 12 disciplines, 37 in paraswimming (third nations in ranking)

 

Best italian athlete of Paris 2024: Stefano Raimondi 5 gold and 1 silver (paraswimming)

 

 

Italy in the last two editions, has reached unthinkable levels, if we saw the results of London 2012 (28 medals) or Beijing (18) and Athens (19).

 

Absolutely a good paralympics games

Canada finished with 29 medals and 10 gold (double Tokyo). Results have been getting worse every cycle but this year bucked the trend.

 

To close the games Canada's last two entries finished fourth, fittingly.
