Pistorius to Olympics
by AlvarezGalloso @ 2008-05-16 - 14:18:22

In a week that has seen tragedy, BBC Sports has just reported that Oscar Pistorius [who is a sprinter that is a double amputee] has won his appeal to compete in the Beijing Summer Olympics of 2008. This is great news and it is hoped that it will encourage more people to compete in Sports in spite of their limitations. I am personally delighted for Oscar Pistorius.
