Men's 200m T44 and Men's 400m T44 - Para-sprinter Liam Malone

Liam Malone won his first Gold in the Men's 200m T44 and his SECOND Gold in the Men's 400m T44 following his Silver in the Men's 100m T44.
(Check Paralympic Sport Classification if you are keen to know more about T44 and other sport classes.)

Liam's great finish in the 400m T44 set a new Paralympic Record of 46.20 seconds. (From https://www.rio2016.com/en/paralympics/athletics-standings-at-mens-400m-t43-44)
It's just 0.11 seconds to the New Zealand's able-bodied record in the 400m. (46.09 seconds by Shaun Farrell in 07 Mar 1998 - from Athletics New Zealand http://www.anzrankings.org.nz/site/records_con)



As in Men's 100m T44 Para-sprinter Liam Malone, he received some support from people in New Zealand when he had a dream to become an athlete after his mother passed away.
He made his dream come true, and didn't forget to mention about people, who supported him.
Not only an athlete, he now became a New Zealand's cyborg overlord?


He is the one to keep your eyes on!
