Description

Alexa Leary might be the feel-great sports story of 2024. Three years ago the Queenslander suffered a bike accident so bad that doctors did not expect her to survive. When she did, walking and talking were not considered likely. This week she's claimed two Paralympic gold medals and won countless hearts with her brilliant swimming and incandescent personality. Featured: Matthew Cowdrey, Paralympic gold medallist.
