Cheri Blauwet, seven-time Paralympic medalist and now a medical doctor, talks about injuries, athlete classifications, and doping controls. “I loved competing,” she tells MEDAL QUEST, and she’s proud to be working now to improve rights and health for all individuals with disabilities.
Medal Quest kicks off with an introduction to “the best athletes in the world” – the elite athletes of the Paralympic Games. Competing in sports as different as wheelchair basketball, archery, judo, cycling, and more, these American athletes personify the grit, the strategy, and the skill it takes to go for the gold.
