People booed when he started talking about the government. Then applauded when he returned to talk about the athletes...

Raise you one. 74 year old Libby Kosmala of Australia is competing in her twelfth games (1972-2016). Had it not been for an administrative error she would also have competed in 1968.

An awesome career indeed

 

Ireland's target is 8 medals at these Paralympics which is much lower than last time in London 2012 where we won 8 golds and 16 medals in total. Jason Smyth and Michael McKillop will be going for their 4th gold medals on the track here. Hoping for some good results
