Raleigh wheelchair van

In a recent post we discussed the wheelchair rugby athletes in “Murderball,’ but that is just one of the countless events that comprise the international sporting event that is the Paralympics. Not to be confused with the annual Special Olympics, another amazing set of events, the Paralympic Games are an event held every four years in coordination with the Olympics. The focus of the Paralympics isn’t the disabilities or challenges of the athletes, but rather the training, hard work, and skill necessary to compete in this prestigious event.
